A six-year project with the goal to develop and use machine learning to improve the way social scientists can answer classic as well as emerging questions in economics that require the use of large datasets.
Recently maturing software for stellar modeling and evolution, such as MESA, have been applied to constraining variations of the gravitational constant and exploring such a variation’s ability to account for the Hubble tension between the late- and early- time universe by biasing the local distance ladder.
