An Aggregation Matrix Matlab Function, Caleb Stair Dec 2013

An Aggregation Matrix Matlab Function, Caleb Stair

Regional Research Institute Technical Documents

This Technical Document describes the foundations for an aggregation matrix function implemented in MATLAB, including the format and structure of the required aggregation vector used as an argument to the function. The function is passed with the Ndimensional aggregation vector as an argument. The aggregation vector contains N values ranging from 1 to M, each of which is the aggregate index corresponding to the N preaggregation indices. The function returns an aggregation matrix with M rows and N columns. Pre-multiplying an existing matrix with N rows by the aggregation matrix reduces the row dimensionality from N to M by adding …


Composite Input-Output Production Functions, Randall Jackson Aug 2013

Composite Input-Output Production Functions, Randall Jackson

Regional Research Institute Technical Documents

This document describes the algorithm used for creating an aggregated linear production function for an industry by weighting subsector production functions. The result can be used as a column in an interindustry (I ×I) coefficients table or in a standard Use table (C × I) depending on the units (C or I) of the input data.
