Faculty Brownbag: Yuya Takahashi

Title: "Estimating Models of Markets with Differentiated Products and Individualized Prices" Abstract: "In many transactions involving differentiated products the prices are negotiated between the buyer and seller resulting in individualized pricing. We present some models that are useful for analyzing such markets and closed forms for the distribution of prices and choice probabilities implied by these models. We discuss the identification of such models and illustrate maximum likelihood estimation in a Monte Carlo study. Finally we estimate a model of demand for engineering bricks and consider hypothetical mergers under alternative assumptions for pricing.". Event interval: Single day event.

Seminar: Yuichi Kitamura (Yale)

Part of the Econometrics Seminar Series, Hosted by Jackson Bunting Title: ESTIMATING STOCHASTIC BLOCK MODELS IN THE PRESENCE OF COVARIATES Authors: Yuichi Kitamura and Louise Laage Abstract: In the standard stochastic block model for networks, the probability of a connection between two nodes, often referred to as the edge probability, depends on the unobserved communities each of these nodes belongs to. We consider a flexible framework in which each edge probability, together with the probability of community assignment, are also impacted by observed covariates. We propose a computationally tractable two-step procedure to estimate the conditional edge probabilities as well as the community assignment probabilities. The first step relies on a spectral clustering algorithm applied to a localized adjacency matrix of the network. In the second step, k-nearest neighbor regression estimates are computed on the extracted communities. We study the statistical properties of these estimators by providing… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Savery Hall (SAV). Campus room: SAV 410.

Economics Prospective Student Info Session

Students who study economics learn to decode the systems that are a part of our everyday lives using models and a variety of social and economic data to analyze how decisions are made, and how limited resources are made, traded, and used. In this session, students will learn helpful information about the Department of Economics Undergraduate Program and its Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science majors. Students will also have an opportunity to meet with Department of Economics advisers, and get helpful tips on pursuing Economics as a major at the UW.
