Christiaan Heij
Christiaan Heij (born 1950s) is a Dutch mathematician, an assistant professor in statistics and econometrics at the Econometric Institute at the Erasmus University Rotterdam. He is known for his work in the field of mathematical systems theory,[1] and econometrics.[2]
Life and work
[edit]Heij did his PhD research at the University of Groningen in the 1980s among other young system theorists, such as Hans Nieuwenhuis, Pieter Otter, Jan Camiel Willems, and Dirk T. Tempelaar.[3] In 1988 he graduated under Willems, Professor of Systems and Control and Nieuwenhuis with the thesis "Deterministic Identification of Dynamical Systems,"[4] which was published the next year by Springer in the "Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences" series.
In the 1990s Heij continued his research at the Econometric Institute of the Erasmus University Rotterdam, and wrote a series of books on systems theory, modelling, dynamics systems, and econometrics. With Jan Camiel Willems he supervised the promotion of Berend Roorda, who graduated in 1995 with the thesis, entitled "Deterministic Identification of Dynamical Systems."[4]
Heij is credited extending "The behavioral approach to system theory put forward by Willems,"[5] and for presenting a new total least squares algorithms, specifically for system identification.[6] His most cited work is the 2004 textbook "Econometric methods with applications in business and economics," co-authored with Philip Hans Franses, Teun Kloek, and Herman K. van Dijk, and published by the Oxford University Press.
