Hi useRs.. I cant figure out how to test for causality using causality() in vars package I have two datasets (A, B) and i want to test if A (Granger)cause B. How do I write the script? I dont understand ?causality. How do I get x to "contain" A and B. Further using the command VAR() to specify x, I dont either understand. Kind regards Tobias -- View this message in context:

Hello dudes. I'm developing VAR analysis based on suggestions made by Horváth in its paper Canonical Correlation Analysis and Wiener-Granger Causality Tests. That's the reason I'm looking for if there's any R package to develop Wiener - Granger Causality Test. Thanks a lot for your unvaluable help. Regards from Mexico [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear Community, this is my first programming in R and I am stuck with a problem. I have the following code which automatically calculates Granger causalities from a variable, say e.g. "bs" as below, to all other variables in the data frame: log.returns<-as.data.frame( lapply(daten, function(x) diff(log(ts(x))))) y1<-log.returns$bs y2<- log.returns[,!(names(log.returns) %in%

Hi folks, I am trying to perform a Granger causality analysis with panel data. There are some packages around for panel data analysis and Granger causality. However, I have found neither a package for both panel data and Granger causality nor any R procedures (homogenous/heterogenous causality hypotheses, related tests such as Wald, unit root tests etc.). Of course, someone must have

Dear Community, For my masters thesis I need to perform a multivariate granger causality test. I have found a code for bivariate testing on this page (http://www.econ.uiuc.edu/~econ472/granger.R.txt), which I think would not be useful for the multivariate case. Does anybody know a code for a multivariate granger causality test. Thank you in advance. Best Regards -- View this message in context:

Dear Community, I am new to R and have a question concerning the causality () test in the vars package. I need to test whether, say, the variable y Granger causes the variable x, given z as a control variable. I estimated the VAR model as follows: >model<-VAR(cbind(x,y,z),p=2) Then I did the following: >causality(model, cause="y"). I thing this tests the Granger causality of

Dear All, I'am looking for examples showing that correlation does not imply causality, the targeted audience consists of undergraduate students (their first year at the university but in the BioMathStat track). All practicals are under R. I was able to extract this from R datasets: ### begin data(sunspots) data(lynx) spots <- window(sunspots, freq = 1, start = 1880, end = 1900) lnx <-

Hello, does R estimate belief networks to estimate chains of causality. Anyone point me to the right direction, or the most developed library? looking at DEAL>

Dear all, I am searching for a way to compute a test comparable to Chuang et al. ("Causality in Quantiles and Dynamic Stock Return-Volume Relations"). The aim of this test is to check wheter the coefficient of a quantile regression granger-causes Y in a quantile range. I have nearly computed everything but I am searching for an estimator of the density of the distribution at several

Does anyone know of a package that includes the Modified Sims test [Gewerke, 1983, Sims, 1972]? This test is used in econometrics and is a kind of alternative to the Granger test [Granger, 1969], which is in the package lmtest. Thanks in advance, chris Refernces: Gewerke, J., R. Meese, and W. Dent (1983), "Comparing Alternative Tests of Causality in Temporal Systems: Analytic Results and

I am using the vars package and it calls a function causality() which then calls something called .duplicate. I had to modify the causality function slightly for my purposes and I called it my.causality() but now the .duplicate function is no longer known to the my.causality function. I'm fairly certain that this is due to my lack of expertise in R but if someone could tell me how to make the

Dear All, I hope this is not too off topic. I am given a set of scatteplots (nothing too fancy; think about a normal x-y 2D plot). I do not deal with two time series (indeed I have no info about time). If I call A=(A1,A2,...) and B=(B1, B2, ...) the 2 variables (two vectors of numbers most of the case, but sometimes they can be categorical variables), I can plot one against the other and I

Hi there, I am looking to compare nonlinear mixed effects models that have different nonlinear functions (different types of growth curve)embedded. Most of the literature I can find focuses on comparing nested models with likelihood ratios and AIC. Is there a way to compare model fits when models are not nested, i.e. when the nonlinear functions are not the same? Many thanks in advance! Lindsay

Dear R Community, I am currently student at the Vienna University of Technology writing my Diploma thesis on causality in time series and doing some analyses of time series in R. I have the following questions: (1) Is there a function in R to estimate the PARTIAL spectral coherence of a multivariate time series? If yes, how does this work? Is there an test in R if the partial spectral

Dear All, I am looking for an R implementation of the convergent cross mapping method (see http://bit.ly/XN8OZX and http://www.uvm.edu/~cdanfort/csc-reading-group/sugihara-causality-science-2012.pdf ) The method is presented as an improvement over Granger causality ( http://bit.ly/XN8ydi ), but its implementation (involving shadows of multidimensional manifolds) must be quite some work...

Dear R community, I have a nonlinear model describing average daily soil temperature. What test should I use to compare differences in soil temperature of the two studied vegetation types depending upon month? Building linear contrasts for the developed nonlinear model does not help since this model does not include variable “Months” (only “Days”). 1) Just a Student’s test is not probably
