โฆ Synopsis
The numerical solution of seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) models with vector autoregressive disturbances is considered. Initially, an orthogonal transformation is applied to reduce the model to one with smaller dimensions. The transformed model is expressed as a reduced-size SUR model with stochastic constraints. The generalized QR decomposition is used as the main computational tool to solve this model. An iterative estimation algorithm is proposed when the variance-covariance matrix of the disturbances and the matrix of autoregressive coe cients are unknown. Strategies to compute the orthogonal factorizations of the non-dense-structured matrices which arise in the estimation procedure are presented. Experimental results demonstrate the computational e ciency of the proposed algorithm.

This paper investigates the efficiencies of several generalized least squares estimators (GLSEs) in terms of the covariance matrix. Two models are analyzed: a seemingly unrelated regression model and a heteroscedastic model. In both models, we define a class of unbiased GLSEs and show that their cov
In this paper, we consider a family of feasible generalised double k-class estimators in a linear regression model with non-spherical disturbances. We derive the large sample asymptotic distribution of the proposed family of estimators and compare its performance with the feasible generalized least
