When doing two-way fixed effects OLS estimations, both the variances and covariance of the fixed effects are biased. A formula for a bias correction is known, but in large datasets it involves inverses of impractically large matrices. We detail how to compute the bias correction in this case.

The presented R package called hdData360r collects and preprocesses thousands of up-to-date annual governance, trade, and competitiveness indicators from World Bank Group platforms for all countries worldwide. It contains a function named get_hdData360 that has one mandatory and two optional...

The last years have seen an explosion in the demand for data science skills. In this paper, I introduce the reader to the term, point out the technological jumps that allowed the rise of its methods, and give an overview of the most common ones. I close by pointing out the strengths and...

This study analyzes five of the well-known and most cited distress prediction models in the literature. The models are implemented to continuous publicly listed industrial firms in Turkey through their original and re-estimated coefficients in a comparative way to examine their generalizability...

We propose a new framework for measuring uncertainty and its effects on the economy, based on a large VAR model with errors whose stochastic volatility is driven by two common unobservable factors, representing aggregate macroeconomic and financial uncertainty. The uncertainty measures can also...

This paper develops and presents the prior adaptive group lasso for generalized linear models. The prior adaptive group lasso is an extension of the prior lasso developed by Jiang, He, and Zhang (2016), which allows for the use of existing information from previous or similar studies in the...
