## Post-edited  Bayesian econometrics in the Big Data Era Frühwirth-Schnatter, Sylvia (Auteur de la Conférence) | CIRM (Editeur )

Data mining methods based on finite mixture models are quite common in many areas of applied science, such as marketing, to segment data and to identify subgroups with specific features. Recent work shows that these methods are also useful in micro econometrics to analyze the behavior of workers in labor markets. Since these data are typically available as time series with discrete states, clustering kernels based on Markov chains with group-specific transition matrices are applied to capture both persistence in the individual time series as well as cross-sectional unobserved heterogeneity. Markov chains clustering has been applied to data from the Austrian labor market, (a) to understanding the effect of labor market entry conditions on long-run career developments for male workers (Frühwirth-Schnatter et al., 2012), (b) to study mothers’ long-run career patterns after first birth (Frühwirth-Schnatter et al., 2016), and (c) to study the effects of a plant closure on future career developments for male worker (Frühwirth-Schnatter et al., 2018). To capture non- stationary effects for the later study, time-inhomogeneous Markov chains based on time-varying group specific transition matrices are introduced as clustering kernels. For all applications, a mixture-of-experts formulation helps to understand which workers are likely to belong to a particular group. Finally, it will be shown that Markov chain clustering is also useful in a business application in marketing and helps to identify loyal consumers within a customer relationship management (CRM) program.

## Multi angle  An introduction to particle filters Chopin, Nicolas (Auteur de la Conférence) | CIRM (Editeur )

This course will give a gentle introduction to SMC (Sequential Monte Carlo algorithms):
• motivation: state-space (hidden Markov) models, sequential analysis of such models; non-sequential problems that may be tackled using SMC.
• Formalism: Markov kernels, Feynman-Kac distributions.
• Monte Carlo tricks: importance sampling and resampling
• standard particle filters: bootstrap, guided, auxiliary
• maximum likelihood estimation of state-stace models
• Bayesian estimation of these models: PMCMC, SMC$^2$.
