Научный семинар МИЭФ, Федор Ишаков (University of New South Wales)

В четверг, 16 апреля в 16.40 в ауд. 3211 (ул. Шаболовка, 26) прошел научный семинар МИЭФ. 
Докладчик: Федор Ишаков (University of New South Wales)
Тема доклада: "Estimating Discrete-Continuous Choice Models: Endogenous Grid Method with Taste Shocks"

Тезисы доклада:  We present a novel approach for structural estimation of lifecycle models with discrete and continuous choices which is based on the endogenous grid method (EGM) and nested fixed point maximum likelihood (NFXP). We show how an overcomplicated traditional solution of discrete-continuous choice models which in general includes kinky value functions and discontinuous policy functions, can be simplified by adding extreme value taste shocks to the values of the discrete alternatives. These shocks can be interpreted either as structural noise or as a perturbation that can replicate the original model arbitrary closely. A set of Monte Carlo experiments demonstrate reliability and efficiency of our estimation approach.

Приглашаются все желающие.
