Random forests and selected samples
In: Bulletin of economic research, Band 72, Heft 3, S. 272-287
ISSN: 1467-8586
AbstractThis paper presents a procedure for recovering causal coefficients from selected samples that uses random forests, a popular machine‐learning algorithm. This proposed method makes few assumptions regarding the selection equation and the distribution of the error terms. Our Monte Carlo results indicate that our method performs well, even when the selection and outcome equations contain the same variables, as long as the selection equation is nonlinear. The method can also be used when there are many variables in the selection equation. We also compare the results of our procedure with other parametric and semiparametric methods using real data.
Using food prices and consumption to examine Chinese cost of living
In: Pacific economic review, Band 24, Heft 1, S. 3-26
ISSN: 1468-0106
AbstractThis paper considers two approaches to examining potential bias in China's consumer price index: (i) inferring true changes in cost of living from consumer behaviour; and (ii) creating alternative price indices to compare with official indices. For (i), our semi‐parametric estimates agree with the recent finding of a large understatement in increases to the true cost of living. For (ii), we focus on food prices and explore potential causes of bias. We find some evidence of a new‐good bias. China's large‐scale migration also causes changes in the cost of living that are not reflected in the consumer price index.
