TitleMachine learning applications in economics
ParticipantsJoão Bastos (Principal Investigator)
SummaryThis project is a continuation of last year’s project. We will further explore novel techniques to
uncover new insights from economic data. One of these techniques is conformal prediction, which
allows us to quantify the uncertainty in model predictions with statistically valid guarantees.
Additionally, we will investigate the utility of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI)
techniques in domains where "black-box" models are not advisable.
