概要	Stochastic Frontier Analysis is a frontier regression model, introduced by Aigner, Lovell and Schmidt in 1977, that estimates a production, cost, or profit function while separating each unit's technical inefficiency from ordinary statistical noise. It splits the error term into a symmetric random component and a one-sided inefficiency component, producing firm- or country-level efficiency scores.	Ordinary Least Squares is the classical linear regression method that explains a continuous outcome as a linear combination of predictors. It estimates the coefficients by minimising the sum of squared residuals, and under the Gauss-Markov assumptions these estimates are the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE).	The Panel Data Fixed Effects model estimates relationships from panel data (the same units observed over several time periods) while controlling for unit- and/or time-specific effects, supporting causal inference. It is developed as the within estimator in standard treatments such as Hsiao's Analysis of Panel Data (2014).
