Short Bio

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at IES FSV UK at Charles University under the supervision of Lukáš Vácha and Jozef Baruník. My research interests are mainly in both macroeconomics and financial time series analysis. Particularly, the interest focuses on estimation methods, dependence of time series in various dimensions, and machine learning.

I am also a researcher at Institute of Information Theory and Automation at the Czech Academy of Sciences, where I work on various projects.

Research Interests

• Time-series: time-variation, persistence, quantiles
• Machine Learning: neural networks, classification, distributions, trees

News

• [Oct. 2023] With new winter semester I am a TA at Financial Econometrics II, teaching neural networks.
• [Sep. 2023] Article Learning Probabilistic Distributions of Electricity Prices is submitted.
• [Jun. 2022] Our paper on learning macroeconomic fan-charts is available.

Work in progress

• Persistence of macroeconomic time-series
• Quantile impulse response functions
