Penalized indirect inference
Blasques, Francisco; Duplinskiy, Artem - 2015
Parameter estimates of structural economic models are often difficult to interpret at the light of the underlying economic theory. Bayesian methods have become increasingly popular as a tool for conducting inference on structural models since priors offer a way to exert control over the...

On distributions of ratios
Broda, Simon A.; Kan, Raymond - 2013
A large number of exact inferential procedures in statistics and econometrics involve the sampling distribution of ratios of random variables. If the denominator variable is positive, then tail probabilities of the ratio can be expressed as those of a suitably defined difference of random...

Sampling properties of the Bayesian posterior mean with an application to WALS estimation
De Luca, Giuseppe; Magnus, Jan R.; Peracchi, Franco - 2020
Many statistical and econometric learning methods rely on Bayesian ideas, often applied or reinterpreted in a frequentist setting. Two leading examples are shrinkage estimators and model averaging estimators, such as weighted-average least squares (WALS). In many instances, the accuracy of these...

Transformed perturbation solutions for dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models
Blasques, Francisco; Nientker, Marc - 2019
This paper introduces a new solution method for Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models that produces non explosive paths. The proposed solution method is as fast as standard perturbation methods and can be easily implemented in existing software packages like Dynare as it is...
