Dealing with 0's in loglog regression by using indicator functions I(x > 0)?
Assume we want to estimate the following model
$y = e^{\beta_0} * x_1^{\beta_1} * x_2{\beta_3}$ which we can linearize into
$\log(y) = \beta_0 + \beta_1 * \log x_1 + \beta_2 * \log x_2$
Assume that ...

loglog regression with 0's in IV's
Assume we have 2 predictors $X_1$ and $X_2$ and an outcome $Y$ that we wish to model with the following function
$y = e^{\beta_0} * X_1 ^{\beta_1} * X_2^{\beta_2}$
Also assume that we have some priors ...

Interpretation of parameters in loglog-regression with scaled variables
Consider e.g the model $y = e^{\text{trend} + \text{seasonality}} \cdot \prod_{k \in \text{channels}} x_k^{b_k}$
where $i$ constrained $0 < b_k < 1$ (to capture diminishing marginal returns)

interpretation of loglog regression
It is common econometric disciplines to model an baseline + incremental quantity due to treatment. E.g baseline sales + incremental sales(due to marketing).
It is common to deploy loglog models to ...

Dummy variables in regression with log-transformed continous variables
I have a question dealing with logarithmic variables, log-sum and dummy variables in a multiple regression.
First of all I’ve never worked with log-sums before.
I have a model with y that is log-...

How to log transform a small percentage value?
My independent variable is interest rate, which is small positive variable(less than 1). When I log transform the values, they turn negative because the values are smaller than 1. What is the solution?...

How would you get absolute values from a multivariate log-log model?
I have a log-log model that looks something like this:
$$
\ln (sales) = 8.15 + 0.0516\times \ln(digital) + 0.74\times \ln(tv)
$$
I understand I can interpret the variables in terms of percentage ...

Interpretation of log ratio as dependent variable and independent variables
I am estimating two linear models. In the first, the outcome variable is a log ratio equal to log(measure at t/measure at t-1) and the independent variable is logged. In the second, the outcome ...
