A Bayesian Semiparametric Competing Risk Model with Unobserved Heterogeneity
This paper generalizes existing econometric models for censored competing risks by introducing a new flexible specification based on a piecewise linear baseline hazard, time-varying regressors, and unobserved individual heterogeneity distributed as an infinite mixture of Generalized Inverse Gaussian (GIG) densities, nesting the gamma kernel as a special case. A common correlated latent time eff...
متن کاملA Structural Model with Unobserved Default Boundary
We consider a firm-value model similar to the one proposed by Black and Cox (1976) where additionally the firm value is allowed to jump and instead of assuming a constant and known default boundary, the default boundary is a random and unobserved process. This process has a Brownian component, reflecting the influence of uncertain effects on the precise timing of the default, and a jump compone...
متن کاملHow Licensing Resolves Hold-Up: Evidence from a Dynamic Panel Data Model with Unobserved Heterogeneity
In a patent thicket licensing provides a mechanism to either avoid or resolve hold-up. Firms’ R&D incentives will differ depending on how licensing is used. In this paper we study the choice between ex ante licensing to avoid hold-up and ex post licensing to resolve it. Building on a theoretical model of a patent portfolio race, firms’ choices of licensing contracts are modelled. We derive seve...
متن کاملUnobserved heterogeneity in panel time series models
Recently, the large T panel literature has emphasized unobserved, time-varying heterogeneity that may stem from omitted common variables or global shocks that a¤ect each individual unit di¤erently. These latent common factors induce cross-section dependence and may lead to inconsistent regression coe¢ cient estimates if they are correlated with the explanatory variables. Moreover, if the proces...
متن کاملSemiparametric Bayesian Inference for Dynamic Tobit Panel Data Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity
This paper develops semiparametric Bayesian methods for inference of dynamic Tobit panel data models. Our approach only requires to specify the conditional mean dependence of the unobserved heterogeneity on the initial conditions and the strictly exogenous variables; no further distributional assumption on the unobserved heterogeneity is needed. Important quantities of economic interest such as...
