Set identification. In statistics and econometrics, set identification (or partial identification) extends the concept of identifiability (or "point identification") in statistical models to environments where the model and the distribution of observable variables are not sufficient to determine a unique value for the model parameters, but ...
e. Information economics or the economics of information is the branch of microeconomics that studies how information and information systems affect an economy and economic decisions. [1] One application considers information embodied in certain types of commodities that are "expensive to produce but cheap to reproduce." [2]
Vector autoregression. Vector autoregression ( VAR) is a statistical model used to capture the relationship between multiple quantities as they change over time. VAR is a type of stochastic process model. VAR models generalize the single-variable (univariate) autoregressive model by allowing for multivariate time series.
