Data
-
An open database of product-level indicators for international trade, covering six indicators across ~5,400 HS 6-digit products and all seven HS revisions (1992--2022). Generated by an ensemble of frontier LLMs with built-in uncertainty quantification. Available at plaid.julianhinz.com as bulk CSV downloads, a JSON API, and an interactive explorer.

Code
-
R package that implements a fast estimation procedure of generalized linear models with high dimensional fixed effects. The package makes use of a convenient property of *some* combinations of error term distributions and link functions, where the fixed effects have — conditional on all other estimated parameters — an explicit solution.

The KITE (Kiel Institute Trade Policy Evaluation) model provides a tool for simulating and estimating various types of (trade) policy changes. The underlying model is a New Quantitative Trade Model (NQTM). The model has originally been developed by Caliendo & Parro (2015), building a multi-sector version of the Ricardian trade model of Eaton & Kortum (2002), where countries produce and sell domestically as well as internationally according to their relative comparative advantage. The model extends this framework by allowing for extensive intra- and international input-output linkages where goods and services may enter as both final and intermediate goods. Trade policy is conducted through the tightening or easing of trade barriers in form of tariffs and non-tariff measures.
