Abstract

The aggregation procedure is an important theoretical and empirical topic of economics. It appears in the Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, in Panel and Cross-Sectional Data Analysis, in Data Mining Analysis, in Input---Output and Agent-based Computational Economics Modelling. The question of the choice of algorithm is became important since the size of the sample data has became more important, and despite of the speed of the computers. In this paper we present the "classical" algorithm (the "matrix algebraic" one) of aggregation of the two-dimensional sample data, and compare it to the alternative algorithms (the "vectorial" one) we developed. Then we present some extensions to the multidimensional aggregation.
