Course: Advanced Topics in Econometrics 高级计量经济学 Instructor: Prof. Qi Li Assistant: Dr. Kunpeng Li Course Description: This course will mainly focus on nonparametric/semiparametric methods and their applications in economics. We will show that nonparametric/semiparametric methods can help us solve problems that can be difficulty to handle using conventional parametric approach. Nonparametric methods also have its limitations. We will discuss this as well. Nonparametric methods is a complement, rather than substitute, to the popular parametric methods. We will mainly discuss the nonparamet
