The lectures will cover some classic results in statistical decision theory together with recent applications in theoretical econometrics. Planned topics in decision theory include optimality concepts, convergence of experiments, and asymptotic optimality in regular models. Planned applications in econometrics will draw a variety of examples from the recent literature on nonstandard inference, e.g. inference with weak instruments and inference on non-differentiable functionals.
Research Workshop on 21 May
Preceding these lectures there will be a Research Workshop on Inference and Optimality in Econometrics, with invited talks and a keynote lecture by Isaiah Andrews. This workshop will take place on Wednesday, 21 May 2025.
More information on the TI Econometrics Lectures 2025 can be found on the website of the Tinbergen Institute.
