Official source · Faculty of Arts & Science

This course introduces students to machine learning concepts and techniques, focusing on applications in macroeconomic finance. In the first part we review supervised and unsupervised machine-learning methods. In the second part, we focus on various questions and topics in macro-finance where the use of machine learning is increasingly common. Hands-on use of these techniques to solve economic problems in macro-finance will prepare students for more advanced machine learning courses.
