附报告人简介：
Ron Gallant is Hanes Corporation Foundation Professor of Business Administration, Fuqua School of Business, Duke University, with secondary appointment in the Department of Economics, Duke University. He is also Adjunct Professor, Department of Statistics, University of North Carolina.
Professor Gallant is a Fellow of both the Econometrics Society and the American Statistical Association. He is co-editor of the Journal of Econometrics and past editor of The Journal of Business and Economic Statistics.
Gallant is interested in fitting models from the sciences to data for the purpose of statistical inference. Typically these models will involve a nonlinear parametric component that describes features of the model where the underlying scientific theory is explicit and a nonparametric component that accounts for features where the scientific theory is vague. Appropriate statistical methods for these problems are usually computationally intensive. Methodological interests are in developing statistical methods and numerical algorithms for fitting these models. Theoretical interests are in deriving the statistical properties of proposed methods, particularly the asymptotic properties of estimators of functionals of the nonparametric component. Applied interests are primarily within economics and finance.
On Wednesday Oct. 20th, Professor Gallant will talk about his works on the Determination of General Scientific Models.
