Scalable high-dimensional dynamic stochastic economic modeling [PDF]
Journal of Computational Science, 2015 We present a highly parallelizable and flexible computational method to solve high-dimensional stochastic dynamic economic models. Solving such models often requires the use of iterative methods, like time iteration or dynamic programming. By exploiting the generic iterative structure of this broad class of economic problems, we propose a ...
