This workshop invites cutting edge research that tries to forecast rare negative events using quantitative methods of evaluating risk. We explicitly invite researchers from all fields, inside and outside of academia and using methods spanning from expert opinion to machine learning. The goal of...

The past ten years has seen an explosion of interest in large and heterogeneous datasets and the statistical and computational techniques needed to handle them. Most of the innovation in this area has come in statistics and computer science departments, but recently economists have also begun to...

AMaMeF, acronym for Advanced Mathematical Methods in Finance, is a European network of research promoting the exchange and diffusion of knowledge in the field of Mathematical Finance. The confrence program consists of plenary lectures, invited and contributed sessions, and posters, addressing a...

In this two days’ workshop we want to bring together researchers working in two quite separate fields, computational economics and experimental economics, which yet have seen a steady increase of fruitful interaction in the recent years. Topics include the understanding of the emergent dynamic...

This course covers methods designed to deal with prediction with “big data” in macroeconomics, and to conduct structural analysis. The three main subjects of the course are: - predictive regressions with big data ; - Bayesian VARs, as a popular example of big data multivariate models, which...

The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling. The courses will focus on the simulation and estimation of DSGE models with Dynare. The school will also be the occasion to introduce the next official major release of Dynare...

This workshop will provide an opportunity for academic and central bank economists to discuss a wide range of theoretical and empirical issues regarding macroeconomic models and their applications to policy analysis. Modelling issues of particular interest include: expectation formation,...

The main theme of this meeting is "Pairwise comparisons (pros and cons)". Pairwise comparisons have played a central role in many multi-criteria decision aiding methods and with this theme we wish to stimulate the debate on this specific topic. We welcome all contributions on theory, methodology...

The EcoMod School will offer intensive five-day courses in the international capital of the USA. The following courses will be offered: - Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) Modeling Step-By-Step - Practical General Equilibrium Modeling with GAMS

The focus is on computational management science with emphasis on risk management, valuation problems and measurement applications. This includes optimal risk control problems, stochastic optimization, robust and distributionally robust optimization methods as in the tradition of CMS...
