Time-Series Analysis in a Statistical Context by William Smith ’24, Wednesday October 25, 1:10 – 1:50pm, North Science Building 015, Wachenheim
My presentation explores the statistical properties that underlie time-series analysis, a family of techniques aimed at predicting variables based on discrete observations of previous time periods. These techniques are widely used by econometricians to test economic theories, model future trends, and develop policy recommendations. This talk will explain the theory that supports these models, as well as how these models deal with endogeneity, or confounding variables.
