EC-squared is a series of annual international conferences on research in quantitative economics and econometrics. The acronym (EC)2 stands for European Conferences of the Econom[etr]ics Community. Its main aim is to maintain and extend an adequate forum for both senior and junior European...

The ESOBE meetings have no particular theme but at each meeting a discussion forum for new and recent research is created. Their aim is to bring together researchers and professionals interested in the application of Bayesian inference in economics in relatively small annual workshops that...

We aim at covering all important topics of Prof. Bauwens's long career, including Bayesian and financial econometrics.

This course will provide an introduction to modern Bayesian methods in econometrics. Bayesian methods can be applied to any field of economics. The examples and exercises offered during the course will be drawn from various topics, including micro- and macroeconometrics, and finance. The main...

Course outline: 1. Overview of Bayesian econometrics: Bayesian theory and computations 2. Linear regressions: Gaussian and t errors, moving average errors, independence-chain Metropolis-Hastings, Griddy-Gibbs 3. Mixture models: scale mixture of normals, finite mixture of normals 4. Linear state...

Papers in all areas of Bayesian econometrics are welcome.

The goal of this conference is to exchange ideas and to discuss recent results in the analysis of high-dimensional time series.

The EcoMod Modeling School will offer 3 intensive five-day courses in South Korea cohosted by Jeju Development(JDI) and Jeju National University. Since the courses are run simultaneously, participants can only choose one course for this period. The following courses will be offered: - Practical...

The following topics are likely to be covered: - the econometric modelling and forecasting of inflation and growth; - formulating and using varieties of mechanical, statistical, semi-structural and structural forecasting models; - forecasting at different forecast horizons; - tools for forecast...

RESIM 2014 solicits talks on rare event simulation methodologies and applications, including (but not limited to) the following list of topics: - Methodologies (Importance Sampling; RESTART/Splitting; Stratified Sampling; Cross-Entropy Method; Large Deviations Theory; MCMC Techniques; Extreme...
