Dynare Summer School 2013
by Sébastien Villemot 08 Mar '13

08 Mar '13

Dear Dynare friends, The Dynare Summer School 2013 will take place from June 24 to June 28, 2013 in Paris, France. GOALS OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling. The courses will focus on simulation and estimation of DSGE models with Dynare. It will be also the occasion to introduce the new features in Dynare 4.4 (to be released before the Summer School). Tao Zha (Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta) will be the guest speaker, and will present the Markov-Switching tools in Dynare. This Summer school is aimed at beginners as well as at more experienced researchers. PhD students are encouraged to participate. APPLICATION Interested people should apply online at: http://www.dynare.org/ocs/index.php/summerschool/ss2013/ Application should be done *before April 14, 2013*. You will have to upload a CV and a recent research paper. We will confirm acceptance by April 22, 2013. People working in organizations member of DSGE-net (Bank of Finland, Banque de France, Capital Group, European Central Bank, Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Norges Bank, Sverige Riksbank, Swiss National Bank) should register via their network representative. REGISTRATION FEE - Registration fee for academics (including lunches and one diner, but no accomodation): 150 € - Registration fee for financial institutions not member of DSGE-net (including lunches and one diner, but no accomodation): 1600 € WORKSHOP VENUE Banque de France 31 rue Croix des Petits Champs 75001 Paris France WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION This is a “portable only” workshop. Each participant is required to come with his/her portable computer with MATLAB version 7.0 or above installed. We will provide WiFi access, but participants shouldn't rely on it to access a MATLAB license server at their own institution. As an alternative to MATLAB, it is possible to use GNU Octave (free software, compatible with MATLAB syntax; see http://www.dynare.org/download/octave for details on GNU Octave installation). WORKSHOP DRESSING CODE Business casual. WORKSHOP ANIMATORS - Stéphane Adjemian (CEPREMAP and Université du Maine) - Michel Juillard (Banque de France) - Ferhat Mihoubi (CEPREMAP and Université d’Évry) - Marco Ratto (Joint Research Centre, European Commission) - Sébastien Villemot (CEPREMAP) - Tao Zha (Federal Reserve of Atlanta) This workshop is organized with the support of Banque de France, CEPREMAP and DSGE-net.

shock_decomposition does not work with selected_variables_only-option
by Johannes Pfeifer 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Dear all, the attached mod-file (a potential unit test) crashes with Reference to non-existent field 'm'. Error in shock_decomposition (line 82) z(i,end,:) = eval(['oo.SmoothedVariables.' M_.endo_names(i,:)]); Error in fs2000_smoother_selected_vars (line 211) oo_ = shock_decomposition(M_,oo_,options_,var_list_); The reason is that a var_list-command is passed to the file, but now there exists no previous smoother result from the estimation command from which to take the results for the other variables. I am not sure if this hints at a deeper issue in that users might have changed parameters for which to now compute the smoother, but shock_decomposition still accesses results from a previous run of estimation. In that regard, it might also be related to https://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare/issues/259 Regards, Johannes -------- Johannes Pfeifer Haußerstr. 29 72076 Tübingen Tel.: +49-(0)7071-6396184 Mobil: +49-(0)170-6936820 jpfeifer(a)gmx.de

Bug in preprocessor evaluation of periods
by Johannes Pfeifer 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Dear all, the attached mod-file runs with the code: //periods 4, 5, 6, 7, 8; periods 4:8; When I switch from the second to the first line, which should be equivalent, I get ERROR: rbc_det3.mod:68.1-71.12: shocks/conditional_forecast_paths: variable EfficiencyInnovation: number of periods is different from number of shock values This looks like a bug. Best, Johannes P.S.: Github issues do not allow for attachments, so I am sending this file the old school way. -------- Johannes Pfeifer Haußerstr. 29 72076 Tübingen Tel.: +49-(0)7071-6396184 Mobil: +49-(0)170-6936820 jpfeifer(a)gmx.de
