Abstract
This chapter is a survey of developments in stochastic frontier modelling. The literature on stochastic frontiers has grown substantially in the 42 years since the seminal work by Aigner et al. (J. Econom 6 (1): 21–37, 1977). There exist many surveys of this literature that cover a broad range of contribution pathways in the field. In this chapter, we present a review of key developments in distributional specifications in stochastic frontier models, with a particular emphasis on innovations that address practical issues identified by practitioners.
