Course # 41430 Section Number 1 Day(s) Tu- Th Time(s) 3:30pm-4:50pm Term Fall 2024 Course Instructor Guillaume Pouliot Syllabus Syllabus 9/18/24 This course explores how modern developments in machine learning, AI and statistical learning may be leveraged in order to improve regression analysis and reduced-form econometrics more generally. For instance, we provide a modern, optimization-conscious treatment of linear regression, quantile regression, instrumental variables, and Fréchet-Hoeffding bounds. Throughout, we make an effort to produce methods that remain valid even when models are --as they always are-- misspecified. To produce such regression methods, we fetch tools and results from fields such as linear programming, optimal transport, numerical linear algebra, deep learning and reinforcement learning.
