Summary Annotation This book collects contributions written by well-known statisticians and econometricians to acknowledge Léopold Simars far-reaching scientific impact on Statistics and Econometrics throughout his career. The papers contained herein were presented at a conference inLouvain-la-Neuve in May 2009 in honor of his retirement. The contributions cover a broad variety of issues surrounding frontierestimation, which Léopold Simar has contributed much to over the past two decades, as well as related issues such as semiparametric regression and models for censored data.
