[[James Chen]] [[Work Logs]] [[James Chen (Work Log)|(log page)]]
07</15/2016 - Refining hazard model: revising variables used, comparing Cox Proportional Hazard and Lognormal Accelerated Failure Time models 07/18/2016 - Cataloged SQL tables, revised STATA script (STATAdatasetup2.do) to include ratios, replace cashflow with ebitda, and filter out firms smaller than $50 million 07/19/2016 - Investigated baseline hazard of Cox Proportional Hazard model. Compared to Lognormal and Loglogistic Accelerated Failure Time models to try to predict hazard rate (not just hazard ratio) 07/20/2016 - Adjusted dataset to filter out firms that are small (<$40m) or not listed in major exchanges (AMEX, NYSE, NASDAQ). Consulted Brian on descriptive statistics of dataset.onlyinclude>
07/21/2016 - Investigated negative ebitda ratios.===Spring 2017===
0702/2202/2016 2017 - Performed further testing of hazard model. Ran preliminary Planned immediate next steps for LBO project; fixed bug in matching analysis using patent flow data.code (matchpair indices not being stored correctly)
07/25/===Fall 2016 - Cleaned data setup do file. Organized list of data problems to consult with Ed.===
09/06/2016 - Discussed workload for the week, plan for project going forward with Ed and Jake.
10/13/2016 - Met with Ed and Brian to discuss results and future work for LBO Innovation project. Began rebuild/redocumentation of dataset.
10/14/2016 - Continuing rebuild, documentation at [[Leverage_Buyout_Innovation_Leveraged_Buyout_Innovation_(CleanAcademic_Paper)#New_Version]]. COMPUSTAT data is now standardized for linking.
10/18/2016 - Began importing Brian's SDC data into SQL database
10/28/2016 - Completed initial SDC join. Adding additional matches using name-based matching.
 
11/03/2016 - Continued working on name-based matching.
 
11/04/2016 - Completed name-based matching for SDC data/LBOs.
 
11/10/2016 - Finalized documentation for LBO side of project. Minor bugfixes for name-based matching from last week.
 
11/11/2016 - Worked on matching in patent flows and stocks, basically finished up to name-based matching
 
11/17/2016 - Finished matching in patent flows and stocks, contingent on having a completed active patent start/end table from Napas
 
11/18/2016 - Minor bugfixes for STATA code (got winsorized variables working consistently); began working on patent start/end table
