Information Based Estimators for the Non-Stationary Transition Probability Matrix: An Application to the Danish Pork Industry

Karantininis, Kostas - Institut for Fødevare- og Ressourceøkonomi, … - 2001

A generalised cross entropy instrumental variables estimator is used to recover the non-stationary transition probability matrix for the Danish pork industry. A technique is also developed to recover missing data points due to category re-specifications. The impact of a set of exogenous...
