Synopsis

This work presents an exciting new set of econometric methods. They have been developed as a result of the increase in power and affordability of computers which allow simulations to be run. The authors have played a large role in developing these techniques.

From the Back Cover

Simulation-Based Econometric Methods introduces a new generation of econometric methods in the classical domain. After linear models leading to analytical expressions for estimators and non-linear models using numerical optimization algorithms, the availability of high-speed computing has enabled econometricians to consider econometric models without simple analytical expressions. The previous difficulties presented, for instance, by the presence of integrals of large dimensions in the probability density functions or in the moments can be circumvented by a simulation-based approach.
