Seminars at Ca' Foscari University: Melvyn Weeks, University of Cambridge
by Roberto CASARIN 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Dear all, I am pleased to invite you to the seminar organised by the Department of Economics at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, which can be followed via Zoom. Time: Wednesday 27th of September, at 10.30 Location: Campus San Giobbe, Meeting Room 1 Zoom: https://www.unive.it/data/agenda/3/77644 Speaker: Melvyn Weeks (University of Cambridge) Title: Making Sense of Natural Language: Measuring Cultural Fit and Its Impact on Managerial Tenure Abstract: We create measures for managers' cultural fit using one of the latest machine learning technologies – the sentence embedding model - by analysing 11.5 million speeches in earnings calls. A better cultural fit is significantly and positively correlated with managerial tenure. We demonstrate that the effect of cultural fit on managerial tenure is causal using causal survival forests. Firms that hire culturally disruptive managers have lower future market values and performance. The stock market reacts positively to signals that indicate low cultural dispersion within the firm. -- Roberto Casarin, PhD Professor of Econometrics Ca' Foscari University of Venice San Giobbe 873/b - 30121 Venezia, Italy http://sites.google.com/view/robertocasarin/ https://www.unive.it/vera <https://www.unive.it/isba2024> https://www.unive.it/isba2024 -- Nota automatica aggiunta dal sistema di posta *Sostieni il futuro* Dona il tuo 5x1000 al Collegio Internazionale Ca' Foscari *FINANZIAMENTO DELLA RICERCA SCIENTIFICA E DELLA UNIVERSITÀ | CODICE FISCALE: 80007720271*

OWABC seminar - Carlo Albert - September 28, 9am UK time
by Massimiliano Tamborrino 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Dear all, the 5th Season of the One World ABC www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc<http://www.warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc> is about to start. We are working on the lineup, after having secured some exciting talks (more info to come). If you are interested in giving a talk or would like to suggest a speaker, please get in touch with Massimiliano Tamborrino (massimiliano.tamborrino(a)warwick.ac.uk) or any of the other organisers. Our first speaker is Carlo Albert<https://www.eawag.ch/en/about-us/portrait/organisation/staff/profile/carlo-…>, who is talking about "Learning summary statistics for Bayesian inference with Autoencoders" on Thursday the 28th September at 9am UK time, with an abstract reported below. The talk will be streamed on Zoom https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/69069218828 Password: 594071 We are looking forward to seeing you next Thursday, best, Massimiliano on the behalf of the OneWorldABC Organisers Date: Thursday, September 28, 9am UK time Speaker: Carlo Albert<https://www.eawag.ch/en/about-us/portrait/organisation/staff/profile/carlo-…>, Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology Title: Learning summary statistics for Bayesian inference with Autoencoders Abstract: In order for ABC to give accurate results and be efficient, we need summary statistics that retain most of the parameter-related information and cancel out most of the noise, respectively. For many scientific applications, we need strictly more summary statistics than model parameters to reach a satisfactory approximation of the posterior. Therefore, we propose to use a latent representation of deep neural networks based on Autoencoders as summary statistics. To create an incentive for the encoder to encode all the parameter-related information but not the noise, we give the decoder access to explicit or implicit information on the noise that has been used to generate the training data. We validate the approach empirically on two types of stochastic models, one being a member of the exponential family, the other one not. ------ Dr. Massimiliano Tamborrino Associate Professor Department of Statistics University of Warwick https://warwick.ac.uk/tamborrino

Seminars at Ca' Foscari University: Dimitris Korobilis, University of Glasgow
by Roberto CASARIN 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Dear Colleagues, It is my pleasure to invite you to the seminar organised by the Department of Economics at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, which can be followed via Zoom. Time: Monday 25, at 12.15 Location: Campus San Giobbe, Meeting Room 1 Zoom: https://www.unive.it/data/33113/3/76558 Speaker: Dimitris Korobilis (University of Glasgow)Title: Monitoring Multicountry Macroeconomic Risk Abstract: We propose a multicountry quantile factor augmented vector autoregression (QFAVAR) to model heterogeneities both across countries and across characteristics of the distributions of macroeconomic time series. The presence of quantile factors allows for summarizing these two heterogeneities in a parsimonious way. We develop two algorithms for posterior inference that feature varying level of trade-off between estimation precision and computational speed. Using monthly data for the euro area, we establish the good empirical properties of the QFAVAR as a tool for assessing the effects of global shocks on country-level macroeconomic risks. In particular, QFAVAR short-run tail forecasts are more accurate compared to a FAVAR with symmetric Gaussian errors, as well as univariate quantile autoregressions that ignore comovements among quantiles of macroeconomic variables. We also illustrate how quantile impulse response functions and quantile connectedness measures, resulting from the new model, can be used to implement joint risk scenario analysis. Keywords: quantile VAR; MCMC; variational Bayes; dynamic factor model -- Roberto Casarin, PhD Professor of Econometrics Ca' Foscari University of Venice San Giobbe 873/b - 30121 Venezia, Italy http://sites.google.com/view/robertocasarin/ https://www.unive.it/vera <https://www.unive.it/isba2024> https://www.unive.it/isba2024 -- Nota automatica aggiunta dal sistema di posta *Sostieni il futuro* Dona il tuo 5x1000 al Collegio Internazionale Ca' Foscari *FINANZIAMENTO DELLA RICERCA SCIENTIFICA E DELLA UNIVERSITÀ | CODICE FISCALE: 80007720271*
