“Model Evaluation and Causal Search: Empirical and Experimental Approaches"
Centro Congressi Le Benedettine (Pisa - Italy)
A three-day summit of talks and wonderful activities!
The goal of the workshop is to give scholars a chance to meet and discuss their work on model evaluation in economics combining different approaches such as methods for causal learning, agent-based modelling, economic experiments, metrics of goodness and completeness, models with artificial agents in markets.
Methodological, empirical, and experimental papers are all welcome.
The workshop will be hosted by the University of Pisa and Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, and features a friendly atmosphere, which allows for discussing high quality research in a convivial environment. Regular sessions will be introduced by our keynote speakers: Daniela Puzzello (Indiana University), Thomas Lux (University of Kiel), Alessio Sancetta (Royal Holloway, University of London), and Tobias Henschen (University of Cologne).
The organization will sponsor the social dinner and accommodation for the speakers. No fee is required, but all participants are warmly requested to attend all sessions.
