Abstract
Density (5.7) can not be expressed in closed form or at least approximated for the general case (for example by linearization), when a closed form representation of y Fs (x i,m i ) is missing. This is exactly the case with a DEA estimated frontier. So parameter estimation based on analytical evaluation of this likelihood in applied work (with unknown frontier) is impossible.
