Computer-Aided Econometrics

This text and reference volume contains 16 contributions written by a cross-section of the international econometrics community addressing recent work in the creative and "high end" aspects of computational science as they apply to economists' mathematical models. An initial chapter discusses methodological questions arising from large data sets, followed by 15 chapters arranged in four sections: applications of simulation methods; Bayesian and related inference; econometric modeling; and nonparametric and semiparametric inference.
