🏷️ Labels: Econometrics, Covariance, Visualization, Python, Statistical Analysis
📂 Project: Teaching
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The session aimed to develop a comprehensive understanding of econometric concepts and techniques, focusing on visualization, variance decomposition, and covariance matrices.
Key Activities
- Visualizing Lognormal Distribution: Implemented Python code to plot a lognormal distribution on a log10 scale, exploring econometric concepts such as variance decomposition and panel data analysis.
- Advanced Econometrics Guide: Outlined a content list for a book covering theoretical foundations and practical applications in econometrics, including variance and covariance matrices.
- Covariance Matrices Cheatsheet: Created a cheatsheet detailing the definition, properties, and applications of covariance matrices in multivariate analysis and finance.
- Mathematical Decomposition: Reflected on the decomposition of covariance matrices using factor models, PCA, and LMM for statistical modeling.
- Aggregate Volatility Analysis: Planned an analytical approach to study aggregate volatility through empirical analysis and bootstrap experiments.
Achievements
- Developed Python visualization for econometric concepts.
- Compiled a comprehensive guide and cheatsheet for covariance matrices and econometric techniques.
Pending Tasks
- Further exploration of Bayesian econometrics and its applications.
- Implementation of bootstrap experiments for volatility analysis validation.
