Structural Dynamic Factor Analysis Using Prior Information From Macroeconomic Theory
利用宏观经济理论先验信息的结构动态因子分析
Dynamic factor models are becoming increasingly popular in empirical macroeconomics due to their ability to cope with large datasets. Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models, on the other hand, are suitable for the analysis of policy interventions from a methodical point of view. In this article, we provide a Bayesian method to combine the statistically rich specification of the former with the conceptual advantages of the latter by using information from a DSGE…
