# Econometric Methods-big Data

## ECON-4280

Examine advanced econometric and statistical methods for the analysis of high-dimensional data, otherwise known as “Big Data.” In this setting, detailed information for each unit of observation informs machine learning techniques such as classification and regression trees; random forests; penalized regressions; and boosted estimation. These prediction methods are then utilized to improve causal modeling, with applications in the study of healthcare demand and supply modeling, and behavior of consumers and businesses.
