商品描述

本書序言

Prepare students to work with modern applications and very large data sets, including applications that predict consumer choices and work with nonstandard data (e.g., text data).
●A new Chapter 14 is dedicated to big data and machine learning methods. In economics, many applications focus on the “many-predictor” problem, where the number of predictors is large relative to the sample size. This chapter introduces students to methods beyond the ordinary least squares method that can help them have much lower out-of-sample prediction errors.
●Chapter 17 extends the many-predictor focus of Chapter 14 to time series data. Using the dynamic factor model and a 131-variable set of US quarterly macroeconomic data, students learn how to forecast future values — an important skill to have as professionals in the field of econometrics.
●Regression is now introduced with a parallel treatment of prediction and causal inference, to expose students to the different demands on how data can be collected (i.e., randomized vs. controlled variables).
Keep students engaged with a full array of pedagogical material, tools, and resources
●General Interest boxes provide students with interesting insight into related topics, while also highlighting real-world studies. The 4th Edition now extends discussion of the historical origins of instrumental variables regression (Chapter 12).
●Exercise sets provide instructor flexibility in setting up assignments. Review the Conceptsquestions allow students to check their understanding. In addition to Exercises that provide intensive practice, Empirical Exercises allow students to apply what they have learned to answer real-world empirical questions.
Reach every student with MyLab
●The 4th Edition features more exercises covering more topics to allow instructors greater flexibility in assigning auto-graded exercises that provide instant, personalized feedback to students.

本書序言

準備學生應對現代應用程式和非常大的資料集,包括預測消費者選擇和處理非標準數據(例如文本數據)的應用程式。
● 新增第14章專門介紹大數據和機器學習方法。在經濟學中,許多應用都集中在“多預測變數”問題上,即預測變數的數量相對於樣本量很大。本章介紹了超出普通最小二乘法的方法,可以幫助學生在預測時具有更低的樣本外預測誤差。
● 第17章將第14章的多預測變數焦點擴展到時間序列數據。通過使用動態因子模型和一組131個美國季度宏觀經濟數據,學生學習如何預測未來值-這是作為計量經濟學領域專業人員的重要技能。
● 現在以平行處理的方式介紹回歸,包括預測和因果推斷,以使學生了解數據收集的不同要求(即隨機化對照變量)。

通過全面的教學材料、工具和資源,保持學生的參與度。
● 一般興趣框提供有趣的相關主題見解,同時突出現實世界的研究。第四版現在擴展了工具變數回歸的歷史起源討論(第12章)。
● 練習題組提供教師在設定作業方面的靈活性。概念回顧問題讓學生檢查他們的理解。除了提供密集練習的練習題外,實證練習題還允許學生應用所學知識回答現實世界的實證問題。

通過MyLab,觸及每一位學生。
● 第四版增加了更多涵蓋更多主題的練習題,讓教師在指派自動評分的練習題方面具有更大的靈活性,並為學生提供即時個性化的反饋。
