statistics/correlation question NOT R question
This is not an R question but if anyone can help me, it's much appreciated. Suppose I have a series ( stationary ) y_t and a series x_t ( stationary )and x_t has variance sigma^2_x and epsilon is normal (0, sigma^2_epsilon ) and the two series have the relation y_t = Beta*x_t + epsilon My question is if there are particular values that sigma^2_x and sigma^2_epsilon have to take in

avoid loop with three-dimensional array
Dear R user, I'm trying to find a solution for optimizing my code. I have to run a 50.000 iteration long simulation and it is absolutely necessary to have an optimized code. I have to do this operation *sum_t ( t(X_t) %*% A %*% X_t )* where X_t is a (d*k) matrix which changes in time and A is a constant in time (d*d) matrix. I have put all my X_t in a three dimensional array X of dimension

stochastic process transition probabilities estimation
Hi all, I'm new with R (and S), and relatively new to statistics (I'm a computer scientist), so I ask sorry in advance if my question is silly. My problem is this: I have a (sample of a) discrete time stochastic process {X_t} and I want to estimate Pr{ X_t | X_{t-l_1}, X_{t-l_2}, ..., X_{t-l_k} } where l_1, l_2, ..., l_k are some fixed time lags. It will be enough for me to compute

dlm package: how to specify state space model?
Dear r-users! I have another question regarding the dlm package and I would be very happy if someone could give me a hint! I am using the dlm package to get estimates for an endogenous rate of capacity utilization over time. The general form of a state space model is (1) b_t = G * b_t-1 + w_t w_t ~ N(0,W) (2) y_t= A' * x_t + H' * b_t + v_t v_t ~ N(0,V) (Hamilton 1984: 372) The

How to write an estimated seasonal ARIMA model from R output?
I'm trying to use the following command. arima (x, order = c(p,d,q), seasonal =list(order=c(P,D,Q), period=s) How can I write an estimated seasonal ARIMA model from the outputs. To be specifically, which sign to use? I know R uses a different signs from S plus. Is it correct that the model is: (1-ar1*B-ar2*B^2-...)(1-sar1*B^s-sar2*B^2s-....)(1-B)^d(1-B^s)^D

FW: How to fit an linear model withou intercept
Hi Mark, I don't know wether you recived a sufficient reply or not, so here are my comments to your problem. Supressing the constant term in a regression model will probably lead to a violation of the classical assumptions for this model. From the OLS normal equations (in matrix notation) (1) (X'X)b=X'y and the definition of the OLS residuals (2) e = y-Xb you get - by

algebra/moving average question - NOTHING TO DO WITH R
This has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with R but I was hoping that someone might know because there are obviously a lot of very bright people on this list. Suppose I had a time series of data and at each point in time t, I was calculating x bar + plus minus sigma where x bar was based on a moving window of size n and so was sigma. So, if I was at time t , then x bar t plus minus sigma_t would be

Sample correlation coefficient question NOT R question
This is a statistics question not an R question. When calculating the sample correlation coefficient cor(x_t,y_t) between say two variables, x_t and y_t t=1,.....n ( one can assume that the variables are in time but I don't think this really matters for the question ), does someone know where I can find any piece of literature that says that each (x_j,y_j) pair has To be independent from the

marginal distribution wrt time of time series ?
Dear all, In many papers regarding time series analysis of acquired data, the authors analyze 'marginal distribution' (i.e. marginal with respect to time) of their data by for example checking 'cdf heavy tail' hypothesis. For i.i.d data this is ok, but what if samples are correlated, nonstationary etc.? Are there limit theorems which for example allow us to claim that

Heteroskedastic Time Series
Hi R-helpers, I'm new to time series modelling, but my requirement seems to fall just outside the capabilities of the arima function in R. I'd like to fit an ARMA model where the variance of the disturbances is a function of some exogenous variable. So something like: Y_t = a_0 + a_1 * Y_(t-1) +...+ a_p * Y_(t-p) + b_1 * e_(t-1) +...+ b_q * e_(t-q) + e_t, where e_t ~ N(0, sigma^2_t),

Functions for autoregressive Regressionmodels (Mix between times series and Regression Models) ?
Hello everybody, I've a question about "autoregressive Regressionmodels". Let Y[1],.....,Y[n], be a time series. Given the model: Y[t] = phi[1]*Y[t-1] + phi[2]*Y[t-1] + ... + phi[p]*Y[t-p] + x_t^T*beta + u_t, where x_t=(x[1t],x[2t],....x[mt]) and beta=(beta[1],...,beta[m]) and u_t~(0,1) I want to estimate the coefficients phi and beta. Are in R any functions or packages for

help with simulate AR(1) data
Hi, sorry for bothering your guys again. I want to simulate 100 AR(1) data with cor(x_t, x_t-1)=rho=0.3. The mean of the first 70 data (x_1 to x_70) is 0 and the mean of the last 30 data (x_71 to x_100) is 2. Can I do it in the following way? x <- arima.sim(list=(ar=0.3), 100) mean <- c(rep(0, 70), rep(2, 30)) xnew <- x+mean If the above code to simulate 100 AR(1) data is right, what

annotation problems (conditional text())
Hello, I'm trying to annotate my plots nicely and am running into trouble. This example contains two problems: a) the 'text()' arguments do not show the conditional behavior I'm trying to give them. I try to test for the intercept of my regression and reformat the output accordingly ('+ intercept' in the >= 0 case and '- sqrt(intercept^2)' in the other case),

How to compare the effect of a variable across regression models?
Hello, I would like, if it is possible, to compare the effect of a variable across regression models. I have looked around but I haven't found anything. Maybe someone could help? Here is the problem: I am studying the effect of a variable (age) on an outcome (local recurrence: lr). I have built 3 models: - model 1: lr ~ age y = \beta_(a1).age - model 2: lr ~ age + presentation

result numeric(0) when using variable1[which(variable2="max(variable2)"]
Dear all, I have a question about the knowing for which row I have the max value of one of my variables. I calculated the Rsquared for different columns and made a list to gather them. I unlisted this list to create a vector with this values. I want to know for which column I have the max value of Rsquared. The columns were always named in the same way. They always start with results4$depth_

using garchFit() to fit ARMA+GARCH model with exogeneous variables
Hello - Here's what I'm trying to do. I want to fit a time series y with ARMA(1,1) + GARCH(1,1), there are also an exogeneous variable x which I wish to include, so the whole equation looks like: y_t - \phi y_{t-1} = \sigma_t \epsilon_t + \theta \sigma_{t-1} \epsilon_{t-1} + c x_t where \epsilon_t are i.i.d. random variables \sigma_t^2 = omega + \alpha \sigma_{t-1}^2 + \beta

Restricted Least Squares
Hi, I need help regarding estimating a linear model where restrictions are imposed on the coefficients. An example is as follows: Y_{t+2}=a1Y_{t+1} + a2 Y_t + b x_t + e_t restriction a1+ a2 =1 Is there a function or a package that can estimate the coefficient of a model like this? I want to estimate the coefficients rather than test them. Thank you for your help Ahmad Abu Hammour --------------

how to get r-squared for a predefined curve or function with "other" data points
hello mailing list! i still consider myself an R beginner, so please bear with me if my questions seems strange. i'm in the field of biology, and have done consecutive hydraulic conductivity measurements in three parallels ("Sample"), resulting in three sets of conductivity values ("PLC" for percent loss of conductivity, relative to 100%) at multiple pressures

ccf(x,y) vs. cor() of x and lagged values of y
Hi I'm computing the correlation between two time-series x_t and y_t-1 (time-series lagged using the lag(y,-1) function) using the cor() function and the returned value is different from the value of ccf() function at the same lag. Any ideas why this is so? Thanks in advance for any hints. Mihnea [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
