Machine learning techniques are being actively pursued in the private sector and have been widely adopted in fields such as computational biology and computer vision. However, the role of machine learning in economics has so far been limited. This workshop was organized to provide a forum to discuss how ideas and techniques from machine learning could be applied to economic questions. The workshop will bring together researchers from computer science, statistics, econometrics and applied economics to foster interactions and discuss different perspectives on statistical learning and its potential impact on economics.
The workshop began with overview talks on machine learning and statistics by researchers from outside of economics. Three following sessions were organized around the themes of causal inference, prediction, and networks and complex data. Each session included the presentation of papers in economics that make use of machine learning methodology, followed by a discussion by researchers from multiple communities.
The 2016 MFM Summer Session held June 11–15 gave doctoral students and other early career researchers a thorough grounding in in macroeconomic modeling. Students learned techniques, data sources, evidence, applications, and methods to assess how the financial sector impacts the economy as a whole. The program brought together leading academics and experts who build and use models to manage system risk in financial and policy settings. Speakers presented models and methods in contexts focused on understanding the last financial crisis—and preventing the next one.

After sustained and strong development in the 1960s and 1970s, the Caribbean’s economic growth has been slow over the past two decades. Caribbean nations are confronting a range of deep macroeconomic, financial, and structural challenges, as well as persistent violent crime, high energy costs, constrained access to credit, the high cost of doing business, and frequent natural disasters. In the face of these many obstacles, what is the path to unleashing growth and strengthening resilience in the Caribbean?
The Inter-American Dialogue is pleased to partner with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to host a panel of experts for a discussion focused on structural impediments to sustained economic growth in the Caribbean.

"Keiko" is Keiko Fujimori, daugher of Alberto Fujimori, the former president of Peru now serving a life sentence for crimes he committed when he was in office from 1990 to 2000.
He ended the Shining Path insurgency, but he became an autocratic dictator who silenced political opponents, the media and students and presided over a state of fear in Peru.
I undersand Keiko maintains he father is innocent but says she's not his pawn.
Wikipedia says:
"A controversial figure, Fujimori ended his presidency by fleeing Peru for Japan amid a major corruption scandal and allegations of human rights violations. Despite this, some commentators have credited his government with the creation of Fujimorism, defeating the Shining Path insurgency and restoring Peru's macroeconomic stability. Even amid his prosecution in 2008 for crimes against humanity relating to his presidency, two-thirds of Peruvians polled voiced approval for his leadership in that period."
