Hi, I have been using this website ( http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm ) to help me to fit ARIMA models to my data. At the moment I have two possible methods to use. Method 1 If I use arima(ts.data, order=c(1,2,0), xreg=1:length(ts.data)) then the wrong value for the intercept/mean is given (checked on SPSS and...

...where they report problem with ARIMA models in R. I run the examples there and they give result as shown on the website. Does this mean that nothing has corrected in R? Maybe you not have seen the page, but the author said he contacted you. Here is the URL: http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm I like to know your opinion. Mvh.

...ghlights discrepancy in "arima" function while dealing with differenced time series. Is there a substitute function similar to "sarima" mentioned in the following website implemened in R? Any pointers would be of great help. http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/general/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm Thanx in advance. Sachin --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, When I run an arima(1,1,1) on an I(1) variable, y, I get different estimates to when I first difference the variable myself, e.g y2<-diff(y), and then run arima(1,0,1) on y2. Shouldn't these two approaches give the same output? Any help will be much appreciated. george

Hi all, I would like to know whether there is any function in R were i can find the cross-correlation of two or more multivariate (time series) data. I tried the function ccf() but it seems like to have two univariate datasets. Please let me know. sincerely, sandeep -- Sandeep Joseph PhD Post Doctoral Associate Center for Tropical & Emerging Global Diseases Paul D. Coverdell Center,

Hi, I have been using this site ( http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm) to help me with some ARIMA modelling in R. Unfortunately the methods mentioned do not appear to work with second order differencing; arima(*, 2, *). I have used some dummy data to illustrate my point. When I use the xreg=... method, the estimate of intercept is *way* off. This can be seen b...

David Stoffer describes some challenges with R's output when fitting ARIMA models for different orders (see Issue 2 at http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm). R doesn't fit an intercept in the model if there is any differencing. David describes a workaround using the xreg parameter to force R to calculate an intercept. Assume I have a variable y and 3 explanatory variables a, b and c. No intercept would be produced for the model .... fit = a...

Hello,Could somebody tell me what is the difference between  theese 3 calls of functionsarma(x,order=c(1,0)), arima(x,order=c(1,0,0)) ar(x,order=1)?I expected same residuals of theese three models,but unexpectably for the first two R requiredinitial value of something (what?)...Thanks in advance!  [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...time series that I would like to correlate but as they are autocorrelated, I am "pre-whitening" them first by fitting ARIMA models, then correlating their residuals....as described in https://onlinecourses.science.psu.edu/stat510/?q=node/75 However, http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm discusses some issues with ARIMA in R. In particular, for issue 2, if there is any differencing, a constant term is not included, but the solution is to 1) input a series that has already been differenced and not include an order for differencing in the function, or 2) include an xreg argument....

I have written before, but to no avail. I have found two minor problems with fitting time series models with R. The thing is, they may be solved with MINOR adjustments to the code. I have posted these problems with detailed examples here: http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm Briefly, the problems are (1) When fitting time series models when there is an AR term present, the output says it's giving you the estimate of the intercept, when, in fact, it's giving you the estimate of the mean. These are NOT the same when an AR term is present. This occurs in...

Hi, I have a suggestion for the fonction arima and arima0. I think you should not call the constant an intercept because it creates confusion. It is not really an intercept but a mean. For an AR(1) the intercept mu should be defined as: X(t)=mu + phi X(t-1) + e(t) What you call intercept mu is rather defined as (X(t)-mu) = phi (X(t-1)-mu)) + e(t) which is not a common way to define an

I am trying to understand how to fit an ARMAX model with the arima function from the stats package. I tried the simple data below, where the time series (vector x) is generated by filtering a step function (vector u, the exogenous signal) through a lowpass filter with AR coefficient equal to 0.8. The input gain is 0.3 and there is a 0.01 normal white noise added to the output: x <- u

Hello everybody! I have a problem when I try to perform a forecast of an ARIMA model produced by an auto.arima function. Here is what I'm doing: c<-auto.arima(fil[[1]],start.p=0,start.q=0,start.P=0,start.Q=0,stepwise=TRUE,stationary=FALSE,trace=TRUE) # fil[[1]] is time series of monthly data ARIMA(0,0,0)(0,1,0)[12] with drift : 1725.272 ARIMA(0,0,0)(0,1,0)[12] with drift

...ation he prefers. Many packages could make use of it if it were in the core of R including zoo, dyn, dynlm, fame and others. This would also address comments such as in ISSUE 4 on this page which is associated with a popular book on time series: http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa2/Rissues.htm 8. On Windows, package build tools should check that Cygwin is in correct position on PATH and issue meaningful error if not. If you get this wrong currently its quite hard to diagnose unless you know about it. 9. Implement the R shell() and shell.exec() commands on non-Windows systems. 10....
