My paper "Latent Dirichlet Analysis of Categorical Survey Responses", with Serena Ng, is now forthcoming at JBES! The main contribution is providing a methodology for summarizing and interpreting heterogeneity in qualitative survey data. (1/4)

Latent Dirichlet Analysis of Categorical Survey Responses

Beliefs are important determinants of an individual’s choices and economic outcomes, so understanding how they comove and differ across individuals is of considerable interest. Researchers often re...

Excited to share a new working paper with S. Wager and @xu_kuang on estimating treatment effects in a market equilibrium! The paper applies a mix of game theory, asymptotic theory, and experiment design to tackle a problem in causal inference. (1/3).

New version of our paper, which includes a theoretical model of information acquisition that motivates using LDA for analyzing categorical survey data.

The paper also includes some applications of the methodology to analyzing survey data on consumer expectations and returns to education. An R package dhlvm (hosted on my Github) is available for the models in the paper. (4/4)

A key insight in the paper is that an economic model of belief formation leads to a version of LDA for survey data. The structural model underpinning the statistical model guides interpretation, identification and estimation. (3/4)

@Susan_Athey For modeling, Pyro (built on top of PyTorch) is a good option for estimating scalable hierarchical Bayesian models, which could be used to decompose a state space in an interpretable way.

I feel that economic theory has an important role in influencing how new methodologies from ML and statistics are adapted for applied work in economics. LDA is a popular Bayesian ML model for text analysis. (2/4)

@AlexZevelev @UCBStatistics @ChicagoBooth Thank you! Not actively, but I do use Julia for all of my papers. Have made small contribution to @nikosIgnatiadis package in the past:
