AI methods in economics and finance research

• Understand the fundamentals of machine learning models and large language models
• Design and implement a basic machine learning pipeline, including data preparation, model training, and evaluation
• Apply large language models in practical research settings

Details about the programme will be available soon.

This course is designed for researchers with a traditional background in economics and finance who wish to become acquainted with emerging AI tools. Rather than focusing on cutting-edge implementations, the course aims to provide a clear sense of what can be achieved with these techniques, along with initial hands-on practical experience.
