Goals
Development of Econometric and OR methods.
Description
Students will be trained to use software R or to use a software for modelling and solving (integer) linear programs. Applications using software R will be based on Bayesian inference of a set of standard econometric models. Special attention will be given to the development of computational algorithms such as Markov chain Monte Carlo.
