• Title: Aggregate Learning for Mixed Frequency Data
• Authors: Takamichi Toda, Daisuke Moriwaki, Kazuhiro Ota
• Abstract summary: We propose a mixed-temporal aggregate learning model that predicts economic indicators for smaller areas in real-time. We find that the proposed model predicts (i) the regional heterogeneity of the labor market condition and (ii) the rapidly changing economic status. The model can be applied to various tasks, especially economic analysis.

• Abstract: Large and acute economic shocks such as the 2007-2009 financial crisis and the current COVID-19 infections rapidly change the economic environment. In such a situation, the importance of real-time economic analysis using alternative datais emerging. Alternative data such as search query and location data are closer to real-time and richer than official statistics that are typically released once a month in an aggregated form. We take advantage of spatio-temporal granularity of alternative data and propose a mixed-FrequencyAggregate Learning (MF-AGL)model that predicts economic indicators for the smaller areas in real-time. We apply the model for the real-world problem; prediction of the number of job applicants which is closely related to the unemployment rates. We find that the proposed model predicts (i) the regional heterogeneity of the labor market condition and (ii) the rapidly changing economic status. The model can be applied to various tasks, especially economic analysis

• A Novel Framework for Analyzing Structural Transformation in Data-Constrained Economies Using Bayesian Modeling and Machine Learning [0.0]
  The shift from agrarian economies to more diversified industrial and service-based systems is a key driver of economic development. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), data scarcity and unreliability hinder accurate assessments of this process. This paper presents a novel statistical framework designed to address these challenges by integrating Bayesian hierarchical modeling, machine learning-based data imputation, and factor analysis.

  We conduct an empirical study on the financial sentiment analysis system under temporal data distribution shifts. We find that the fine-tuned models suffer from general performance degradation in the presence of temporal distribution shifts. We propose a novel method that combines out-of-distribution detection with time series modeling for temporal financial sentiment analysis.

  Traditional time-series econometric methods often appear incapable of capturing the true complexity of the multi-level interactions driving the price dynamics. By adopting a state-of-the-art second-order optimization algorithm, we train a Bayesian bilinear neural network with temporal attention. By addressing the use of predictive distributions to analyze errors and uncertainties associated with the estimated parameters and model forecasts, we thoroughly compare our Bayesian model with traditional ML alternatives.

  We show that deep reinforcement learning can discover stable solutions that are epsilon-Nash equilibria for a meta-game over agent types. Our approach is more flexible and does not need unrealistic assumptions, e.g., market clearing. We demonstrate our approach in real-business-cycle models, a representative family of DGE models, with 100 worker-consumers, 10 firms, and a government who taxes and redistributes.
