| fracdiff {fracdiff} | R Documentation |
Calculates the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters of a fractionally-differenced ARIMA (p,d,q) model, together (if possible) with their estimated covariance and correlation matrices and standard errors, as well as the value of the maximized likelihood. The likelihood is approximated using the fast and accurate method of Haslett and Raftery (1989).
fracdiff(x, nar = 0, nma = 0,
ar = rep(NA, max(nar, 1)), ma = rep(NA, max(nma, 1)),
dtol = NULL, drange = c(0, 0.5), h, M = 100)
x |
time series (numeric vector) for the ARIMA model |
nar |
number of autoregressive parameters p. |
nma |
number of moving average parameters q. |
ar |
initial autoregressive parameters |
ma |
initial moving average parameters |
dtol |
interval of uncertainty for d. If dtol is
negative or NULL, the fourth root of machine precision will be used.
dtol will be altered if necessary by the program. |
drange |
interval over which the likelihood function is to be maximized as a function of d. |
h |
size of finite difference interval for numerical derivatives.
By default (or if negative),
h = min(0.1, eps.5 * (1+ abs(cllf))), where
clff := log. max.likelihood (as returned) and
eps.5 := sqrt(.Machine$double.neg.eps) (typically 1.05e-8).
This is used to compute a finite difference approximation to the Hessian, and hence only influences the cov, cor, and std.error computations; see also fracdiff.var.
|
M |
number of terms in the likelihood approximation (see Haslett and Raftery 1989). |
an object of S3 class "fracdiff", which is
a list with components:
log.likelihood |
logarithm of the maximum likelihood |
d |
optimal fractional-differencing parameter |
ar |
vector of optimal autoregressive parameters |
ma |
vector of optimal moving average parameters |
covariance.dpq |
covariance matrix of the parameter estimates (order : d, ar, ma). |
stderror.dpq |
standard errors of the parameter estimates c(d, ar, ma). |
correlation.dpq |
correlation matrix of the parameter estimates (order : d, ar, ma). |
h |
interval used for numerical derivatives, see h argument. |
dtol |
interval of uncertainty for d; possibly altered from input
dtol. |
M |
as input. |
hessian.dpq |
the approximate Hessian matrix H of 2nd order
partial derivatives of the likelihood with respect to the
parameters; this is (internally) used to compute
covariance.dpq, the approximate asymptotic covariance matrix as
C = (-H)^{-1}. |
The optimization is carried out in two levels:
an outer univariate unimodal
optimization in d over the interval drange (typically [0,.5]),
using Brent's fmin algorithm), and
an inner nonlinear least-squares optimization in the AR and MA parameters to
minimize white noise variance (uses the MINPACK subroutine lmDER).
written by Chris Fraley (March 1991).
Ordinarily, nar and nma should not be too large (say < 10)
to avoid degeneracy in the model. The function
fracdiff.sim is available for generating test problems.
