Book excerpt: The large availability of data and today's high processing power means that data analysis techniques are being applied to their full extent and with all their theoretical capabilities. These techniques derive in machine learning, which teaches computers to do what comes naturally to humans: to learn from large amounts of data by extracting the knowledge contained in the data through mathematical algorithms suitably adapted to computation. Machine learning algorithms use computational methods to extract information directly from data. The algorithms improve their performance adaptively as the number of samples available for learning increases. Machine learning uses two types of techniques: supervised learning, which trains a model on known input and output data so that it can predict future results, and unsupervised learning, which finds hidden patterns or intrinsic structures in the input data. The goal of supervised machine learning is to build a model that makes evidence-based predictions in the presence of uncertainty. A supervised learning algorithm takes a known set of input data and known responses to the data (output) and trains a model to generate reasonable predictions for the response to new data. In this book, supervised learning techniques related to multi-equation models will be developed. More specifically, we will go in depth into the linear multi-equation models of simultaneous equations with all their identification, estimation and diagnosis problems. Special emphasis is placed on multivariate time series models: VAR, VARX, VARMA and BVAR, as well as on cointegration theory. This is followed by multivariate dynamic models with time series and in particular transfer function models. Non-linear simultaneous equation models and partitioned and segmented models are also discussed. Finally, multivariate models of analysis of variance and covariance are developed. All chapters are illustrated with examples and representative exercises solved with the latest software such as EVIEWS, STATA, SAS and SPSS.
