CRETA Workshop on Advanced Econometrics 19

Introduction：

Model averaging is concerned with combining information in such a way that both the model selection part and the estimation part of a process are properly taken into account into the moments of the proposed estimator. We concentrate on one specific view towards model averaging, called weighted-average least squares, which is semi-Bayesian.
