- Accessible introduction to nonparametric and semiparametric econometrics
- A practical approach based on empirical examples
- Provides the main techniques without too much focus on mathematical formulas
- An accessible textbook for undergraduate and graduate econometrics courses
This book allows those with a basic knowledge of econometrics to learn the main nonparametric and semiparametric techniques used in econometric modelling, and how to apply them correctly. It looks at kernel density estimation, kernel regression, splines, wavelets, and mixture models, and provides useful empirical examples throughout. Using empirical application, several economic topics are addressed, including income distribution, wage equation, economic convergence, the Phillips curve, interest rate dynamics, returns volatility, and housing prices. A helpful appendix also explains how to implement the methods using R.
This useful book will appeal to practitioners and researchers who need an accessible introduction to nonparametric and semiparametric econometrics. The practical approach provides an overview of the main techniques without including too much focus on mathematical formulas. It also serves as an accompanying textbook for a basic course, typically at undergraduate or graduate level.Readership: Practitioners, researchers, undergraduates, and graduates in economics, econometrics, and statistics.
