Estimation of General Equilibrium Labor Market Search Models (ESEMO)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
"My proposal deals with the estimation of Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium models with important heterogeneity at the level of firms and households and frictions in the labor market. In the estimation I will exploit mixed frequency data (monthly, quarterly and annual) available in different countries. I will also efficiently take care of possible missing values in the data. This might requir ...

"Spatial spikes: bridging geography and economics to study distance, agglomeration, and policy" (SPIKES)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 29, 2016,
"Economic geographers and geographical economists have been using different methods in order to analyse the location of economic activity. These different approaches to the same topic have, paradoxically, resulted in very similar geographical configurations: a ‘spiky’ world dominated by large metropoli, where intermediate and peripheral locations tend to matter less and less. This apparent similar ...

Estimation of Nonlinear Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity (ENMUH)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Modern economic research emphasizes heterogeneity in various dimensions, such as individual preferences or firms’ technology. From an empirical perspective, the presence of unobserved heterogeneity (to the econometrician) creates challenging identification and estimation problems. In this proposal we explore these issues in a context where repeated observations are available for the same individua ...

Likelihood-based estimation of non-linear and non-normal DSGE models (EDSGEL)
Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
"DSGE models are the standard tool of quantitative macroeconomics. We use them to measure economics phenomena and to provide policy advice. However, since Kydland and Prescott s 1982, the profession has fought about how to take these models to the data. Kydland and Prescott proposed to calibrate their model. Why? Macroeconomists could not compute their models efficiently. Moreover, the techniques ...
