摘要

Information theory is a branch of applied mathematics that is concerned with data compression and communication. Information theory provides an alternative basis for statistical estimation and inference. The goal of this book, as stated in the preface, is "to provide the reader with a firm conceptual and empirical understanding of basic information theoretic econometric models and methods." The goal is successfully achieved. This book is particularly successful in presentation of the concepts of information theoretic methods by illustrating how the existing methods and results can be generalized or viewed differently from the information theoretic perspective. Many information theoretic econometric methods are introduced in this book. When introducing a new method, the authors first elaborate on the conceptual relationship between the previously discussed methods and the new method. Construction of estimators and test statistics follows. Then numerous Monte Carlo simulation results are provided to compare the traditional econometric methods and the information theoretic methods.
