In particular, this collection of papers that cover areas such as developments in local smoothing techniques, splines, series estimators, and wavelets will add to the existing rich literature on these subjects and enhance our ability to use data to test economic hypotheses in a variety of fields, such as financial economics, microeconomics, macroeconomics, labor economics, and economic growth, to name a few UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/54765 UR - https://mdpi.com/books/pdfview/book/1302 ER -
