Dears Sirs During my computational work I encountered unexpected behavior when calling "ar" function, namely # time series x<-ts(c(-0.2052083,-0.3764986,-0.3762448,0.3740089,0.2737568,2.8235722,- 1.7783313,0.2728676,-0.3273164),start=c(1978,3),frequency=4,end=c(1980,3)) # ar function res.ar<-ar(x,aic=TRUE,demean=F) # call "ar" again and ............

Full_Name: Steven McKinney Version: 2.6.0 OS: OS X Submission from: (NULL) (142.103.207.10) Function ar() in package "stats" is showing a quirky bug. Some calls to ar() run to completion, others throw an error. The bug is reproducible by several people on different machines, however, the ar() function itself ends up throwing the error sporadically. Several calls to ar() may be

Hello, I understand that the/ demean/ argument in the *ar()* function to fit an autoregressive model selects the best AR model fitted to the mean deleted observations. What is the purpose of using this demean procedure at all? Its seems silly as the post doesn't deal with R problems.... Thanks -- View this message in context:

Dear R-helpers, I have a very simple question and I really hope that someone could help me I would like to estimate a simple fixed effect regression model with clustered standard errors by individuals. For those using Stata, the counterpart would be xtreg with the "fe" option, or areg with the "absorb" option and in both case the clustering is achieved with "vce(cluster

Dear R users, I wish to manually demean a panel over time and entities. I tried to code the Wansbeek and Kapteyn (1989) transformation (from Baltagi's book Ch. 9). As a benchmark I use both the pmodel.response() and model.matrix() functions in package plm and the results from using dummy variables. As far as I understood the transformation (Ch.3), Q%*%y (with y being the dependent variable)

Hi there, we are beginners in R and we are trying to fit the following time series using ar(2): > x <- c(1.89, 2.46, 3.23, 3.95, 4.56, 5.07, 5.62, 6.16, 6.26, 6.56, 6.98, > 7.36, 7.53, 7.84, 8.09) The reason of choosing the present time series is that the we have previously calculated analitically the autoregressive coefficients using the direct inversion method as 1.1, 0.765, 0.1173.

Suppose I have longitudinal data and want to use the econometric strategy of "de-meaning" a model matrix by time. For sake of illustration 'mat' is a model matrix for 3 individuals each with 3 observations where ``1'' denotes that individual i was in group j at time t or ``0'' otherwise. mat <- matrix(c(1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,0),

Dear R-helpers, First of all, sorry for those who have (eventually) already received that request. The mail has been bumped several times, so I am not sure the list has received it... and I need help (if you have time)! ;-) I have a very simple question and I really hope that someone could help me I would like to estimate a simple fixed effect regression model with clustered standard errors by

Dear R users I have two questions about estimating the spectral power of a time series: 1) I came across a funny thing with the following code: data(co2) par(mfrow=c(2,1)) co2.sp1<-spectrum(co2,detrend=T,demean=T,span=3) co2.sp2<-spectrum(co2[1:468],detrend=T,demean=T,span=3) The first plot displays the frequencies ranging from 0 to 6 whearas the second plot displays the same curve but

Hi everyone, I am doing panel data analysis using the 'plm' package. However, I have noticed that the plm() function reports a different value of R-squared from the R-squared of the lm() function with time-demeaned data. To be clear, I have tried to compute the within model both manually (run an OLS regression with time-demeaned data using lm()) and by using plm(). The two methods give me

There are two problems: (i) the error message is wrong since lag.max is

...that are very small compared to those of dem_yt and demXt$c (approx. by factor 1e-15). I extract the demeaned data as follows: dem_yt<-pmodel.response(res) demXt<-model.matrix(res) How is this possible? What is it that plm() does with my data so that the standard deviations change? ## it demeans them... (although the scale of the reduction is impressive, yet you're estimating out 1500 constants!) I suspect effect="twoways" to play a central role because plm() works fine for effect="individual". ## sure, also because "individual" 'just' introduce...

Hello, I propose two small changes to spec.pgram to get modest speedup when dealing with input (x) having multiple columns. With plot = FALSE, I commonly see ~10-20% speedup, for a two column input matrix and the speedup increases for more columns with a maximum close to 45%. In the function as it currently exists, only the upper right triangle of pgram is necessary and pgram is not returned by

In the R Document, the usage of the acf() is as follow: acf(x, lag.max = NULL, type = c("correlation", "covariance", "partial"), plot = TRUE, na.action = na.fail, demean = TRUE, ...)

Dear R users, I have an unbalanced panel with an average of I=100 individuals and a total of T=1370 time intervals, i.e. T>>I. So far, I have been using the plm package. I wish to estimate a FE model like: res<-plm(x~c+v, data=pdata_frame, effect="twoways", model="within", na.action=na.omit) ?where c varies over i and t, and v represents an exogenous impact on x

Hello again Max. A correction to my response from yesterday. Things were better than they seemed. I thought it over, checked Arellano's panel book and Driscoll and Kraay (Rev. Econ. Stud. 1998) and finally realized that vcovSCC does what you want: in fact, despite being born primarily for dealing with cross-sectional correlation, 'SCC' standard errors are robust to "both

Hi, I'm trying to obtain confidence intervals for auto and cross correlation estimates. I've adapted code made available by Stock and Watson that uses the Bartlett Kernel and the delta method. In R it runs really, really slow because of the loops it uses and I have 9 series that I'd like to examine (81 total combinations). It was easy enough to replace one of the while loops with a
