setCarmaR Documentation

Continuous Autoregressive Moving Average (p, q) model

Description

'setCarma' describes the following model:

Vt = c0 + sigma (b0 Xt(0) + ... + b(q) Xt(q))

dXt(0) = Xt(1) dt

...

dXt(p-2) = Xt(p-1) dt

dXt(p-1) = (-a(p) Xt(0) - ... - a(1) Xt(p-1))dt + (gamma(0) + gamma(1) Xt(0) + ... + gamma(p) Xt(p-1))dZt

The continuous ARMA process using the state-space representation as in Brockwell (2000) is obtained by choosing:

gamma(0) = 1, gamma(1) = gamma(2) = ... = gamma(p) = 0.

Please refer to the vignettes and the examples or the yuima documentation for details.

Usage

setCarma(p,q,loc.par=NULL,scale.par=NULL,ar.par="a",ma.par="b",
lin.par=NULL,Carma.var="v",Latent.var="x",XinExpr=FALSE, Cogarch=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

p

a non-negative integer that indicates the number of the autoregressive coefficients.

q

a non-negative integer that indicates the number of the moving average coefficients.

loc.par

location coefficient. The default value loc.par=NULL implies that c0=0.

scale.par

scale coefficient. The default value scale.par=NULL implies that sigma=1.

ar.par

a character-string that is the label of the autoregressive coefficients. The default Value is ar.par="a".

ma.par

a character-string that is the label of the moving average coefficients. The default Value is ma.par="b".

Carma.var

a character-string that is the label of the observed process. Defaults to "v".

Latent.var

a character-string that is the label of the unobserved process. Defaults to "x".

lin.par

a character-string that is the label of the linear coefficients. If lin.par=NULL, the default, the 'setCarma' builds the CARMA(p, q) model defined as in Brockwell (2000).

XinExpr

a logical variable. The default value XinExpr=FALSE implies that the starting condition for Latent.var is zero. If XinExpr=TRUE, each component of Latent.var has a parameter as a initial value.

Cogarch

a logical variable. The default value Cogarch=FALSE implies that the parameters are specified according to Brockwell (2000).

...

Arguments to be passed to 'setCarma', such as the slots of yuima.model-class

measure

Levy measure of jump variables.

measure.type

type specification for Levy measure.

xinit

a vector of expressions identyfying the starting conditions for CARMA model.

Please refer to the vignettes and the examples or to the yuimadocs package.
