array_operator Array operator to mimic different-dimension-array element-wise operations in MATLAB. It receives as input two arrays of potentially different dimensions, it resizes them to have same dimensions and finally performs the element-wise operation.
av_income_simple Computes average income in each location, which is the weighted average of the income of the people living in the location.
commuting_matrix Function to transform travel times into iceberg commuting costs
density_development Computes residential and commercial floorspace supply and equilibrium prices.
inversionModel Function to invert model, so amenities, wages, productivities, and development density are chosen to match model to data.
living_amenities_simple Function to estimate amenity parameters of locations where users live.
productivity Computes productivity levels in each location
solveModel Function to solve counterfactuals.
sumDims Collapse array along one of the dimensions by adding the elements along that dimension.
sumDims2 Collapse array 2 along one of the dimensions by adding the elements along that dimension.
wages_inversion Function to compute equilibrium wages that make the model labor in every location in equal to the observed data. It finds the w's such that equation (3.2) holds.
