IMF World Economic Outlook
Data Visualization Hackathon
Presentation
(or, the only thing I remember from grad school is comparative
advantage)
Purpose of Today’s Analysis
• What can we learn quickly?
• How can I maximize the value of my presentation given the constraints of:
• Time (2hrs)
• Resources (Available Data)
• And the objective function:
• Visualize data
• Using my comparative advantage (data exploration & presentation)
• Minimize extraneous calculations
• This informs my technology (software choice)
• This informs my analysis (what data, series)
Resource Constraint
• More data than I have time to analyze
• Focus on three (3) data series of GDP growth (%
change)
• Advanced Economics
• Emerging Market and Developing Economies
• World Economy
• What can we learn quickly?
Technology
• Excel (sorry)
• Occam’s Razor meets Moore’s Law
• When presented with competing technological choices to solve a problem,
one should select the technology that requires the least amount of data
processing
• Most pre-processing was done(Thank you, IMF!), so quick
visualizations requires simple data wrangling and minimal calculations
• Take advantage of Excel’s ability to quickly transpose and manipulate
data tables and visualize time series
• What can we learn quickly?
Objective Function
•Visualize Data First
• Perspective
• Context
• New ways of thinking…
•Leverage “Ocular Economics”
• Good starting point for ‘deep dives’
•What can we learn quickly?
What Can We Learn Quickly?
•What can we visualize quickly?
•Time series data lends itself to line charts
•Small multiples
•What do we want to learn?
•How good are we at projecting GDP growth?
•Does it vary by vintage? By aggregated data
series?

Observations based on Visualizing the Data
• Fall Vintages have the highest accuracy, the most years out
• Vintages during/post the recession showed high variance in
predicting 1-3 years out
• Forecasts were over estimating GDP growth until 2015 (ish)
• Outliers from 2007+2008 forecasts drive average, so figure out a way
to treat them
Suggest Next Steps
• More Time
• More (Historical) Data
• Increase sample size of observations
• Econometric analysis
• Proper calibration of data
• Between vs. within vintage variances
• Between vs. within country series variances
Thank You!

2018 IMF Hackathon Presentation

  • 1. IMF World Economic Outlook Data Visualization Hackathon Presentation (or, the only thing I remember from grad school is comparative advantage)
  • 2. Purpose of Today’s Analysis • What can we learn quickly? • How can I maximize the value of my presentation given the constraints of: • Time (2hrs) • Resources (Available Data) • And the objective function: • Visualize data • Using my comparative advantage (data exploration & presentation) • Minimize extraneous calculations • This informs my technology (software choice) • This informs my analysis (what data, series)
  • 3. Resource Constraint • More data than I have time to analyze • Focus on three (3) data series of GDP growth (% change) • Advanced Economics • Emerging Market and Developing Economies • World Economy • What can we learn quickly?
  • 4. Technology • Excel (sorry) • Occam’s Razor meets Moore’s Law • When presented with competing technological choices to solve a problem, one should select the technology that requires the least amount of data processing • Most pre-processing was done(Thank you, IMF!), so quick visualizations requires simple data wrangling and minimal calculations • Take advantage of Excel’s ability to quickly transpose and manipulate data tables and visualize time series • What can we learn quickly?
  • 5. Objective Function •Visualize Data First • Perspective • Context • New ways of thinking… •Leverage “Ocular Economics” • Good starting point for ‘deep dives’ •What can we learn quickly?
  • 6. What Can We Learn Quickly? •What can we visualize quickly? •Time series data lends itself to line charts •Small multiples •What do we want to learn? •How good are we at projecting GDP growth? •Does it vary by vintage? By aggregated data series?

  • 12. Observations based on Visualizing the Data • Fall Vintages have the highest accuracy, the most years out • Vintages during/post the recession showed high variance in predicting 1-3 years out • Forecasts were over estimating GDP growth until 2015 (ish) • Outliers from 2007+2008 forecasts drive average, so figure out a way to treat them
  • 13. Suggest Next Steps • More Time • More (Historical) Data • Increase sample size of observations • Econometric analysis • Proper calibration of data • Between vs. within vintage variances • Between vs. within country series variances
