Reproducible Econometric Simulations
Reproducibility of economic research has attracted considerable attention in recent years. So far, the discussion has focused on reproducibility of empirical analyses. This paper addresses a further aspect of reproducibility, the reproducibility of computational experiments. We examine the current situation in econometrics and derive a set of guidelines from our findings. To illustrate how comp...
متن کاملReproducible Econometric Research
These notes are an informal, first installment in an ongoing project to develop a convenient template for computational experimentation in econometrics. The approach is illustrated by means of an example based on some current research with Steve Portnoy on improving the speed of quantile regression algorithms. The computations are carried out in splus, but similar techniques could be adapted fo...
متن کاملReproducible polypeptide folding and structure prediction using molecular dynamics simulations.
The folding of a polypeptide from an extended state to a well-defined conformation is studied using microsecond classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations in explicit solvent and in vacuo. It is shown that the solvated peptide folds many times in the REMD simulations but only a few times in the conventional simulations. From the fold...
متن کاملUsing HP Filtered Data for Econometric Analysis : Some Evidence from Monte Carlo Simulations
The Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filter has become a widely used tool for detrending integrated time series in applied econometric analysis. Even though the theoretical time series literature sums up an extensive catalogue of severe criticism against an econometric analysis of HP filtered data, the original Hodrick and Prescott (1980, 1997) suggestion to measure the strength of association between (ma...
متن کاملPolicies to Reduce Forest Fragmentation: Combining Econometric Models with GIS-Based Landscape Simulations
Forest fragmentation is a primary threat to terrestrial biodiversity. We combine a parcel-level econometric model of land-use transitions with spatially-explicit landscape simulations to predict the empirical distribution of fragmentation outcomes under given market conditions and policy scenarios. Our model explains transitions between forest, agricultural, and urban uses, allowing us to model...
