Program
The summer school provides a PhD-level introduction to a range of modern topics in time series analysis taught by a selection of top researchers in Europe.
Current planning involves the following topics (in alphabetical order):
Topic | Lecturer | Affiliation |
ARCH, GARCH and Volatility Modelling | Anders Rahbek | University of Copenhagen |
Bayesian Methods for (Macro and Financial) Time Series Analysis | Gregor Kastner | University of Klagenfurt |
Bootstrap | Giuseppe Cavaliere | University of Bologna |
Factor Models | Matteo Barigozzi | University of Bologna |
Functional Cointegration | Massimo Franchi | Sapienza University of Rome |
Functional Time Series | Hörmann Siegfried | Graz University of Technology |
High Frequency Econometrics | Nikolaus Hautsch | University of Vienna |
Introduction, Summary and Closing | Martin Wagner | University of Klagenfurt |
Spectral Analysis | Uwe Hassler | Goethe University Frankfurt |
State Space Modelling | Dietmar Bauer | Bielefeld University |
Each topic will be covered in one half day (2 x 90min). Presentations will roughly follow a common layout introducing the main theory of the area, potentially providing examples and discussing software available and finally indicating relevant questions at the research frontier.
