31906-01 - Seminar: Quantitative Methods 6 KP

Semester Herbstsemester 2015
Angebotsmuster Jedes Herbstsemester
Dozierende Christian Kleiber (christian.kleiber@unibas.ch, BeurteilerIn)
Inhalt Masterseminar Quantitative Methods in Fall 2015: Modern Regression
The seminar intends to provide an overview of topics that are currently not covered in any of our MSc level econometrics courses. This includes alternative methods of regression and also special topics that were, for lack of time, not included in Microeconometrics I.

Potential topics include:

- quantile regression

- expectile regression

- robust regression

- finite mixture models

- regression for fractional responses

- empirical likelihood methods (?)

- model selection (LASSO)

- model averaging (Bayesian and/or least squares)

- boosting

- (some) non- and semiparametric methods


The idea is that each participant presents a model/technique along with an illustration using a data set. The models and methods selected here are all available via some R packages (some also elsewhere, but not necessarily all of them).

This announcement is written in English with the intention of reaching a wider audience, but depending on the participants we may proceed in German.
