Machine Learning for Econometrics - Paperback
by Christophe Gaillac (Author), Jérémy L'Hour (Author)
Machine Learning for Econometrics is a book for economists seeking to grasp modern machine learning techniques - from their predictive performance to the revolutionary handling of unstructured data - in order to establish causal relationships from data.
The volume covers automatic variable selection in various high-dimensional contexts, estimation of treatment effect heterogeneity, natural language processing (NLP) techniques, as well as synthetic control and macroeconomic forecasting. The foundations of machine learning methods are introduced to provide both a thorough theoretical treatment of how they can be used in econometrics and numerous economic applications, and each chapter contains a series of empirical examples, programs, and exercises to facilitate the reader's adoption and implementation of the techniques.Christophe Gaillac, Associate Professor, University of Geneva, Jérémy L'Hour, Quantitative researcher, Capital Fund Management
