i am new to time series,whatever i know up till now,from that i have uploaded time series file & what to build arma model,but for that i want p & q values(orders) tell me how to calculate best p & q values to find best AIC values for model i am doing but giving error >bhavar<-read.table(file.choose()) #taking time series file > decompose(bhavar$V1) Error in

Folks, Is there any implementation available in R for the simultaneous selection of lag order and rank of a nonstationary VAR as described in Chao & Phillips (1999): Model selection in partially nonstationary vector autoregressive processes with reduced rank structure, J. Econ. (91). Or any other systematic procedure for the consistent selection of lag order and cointegration rank? I

This happened two or three weeks ago and it's happening again. Spammers are using Nabble to attack R-Help. The psts are signed radhi and the posts' titles are taken from previous posts and therefore seem authentic but all messages end with "click here". I suggest you don't. And don't rply to this "radhi" And again on a weekend. Rui Barradas

Dear members, I estimated a vector error correction model (VECM) using the "ca.jo" function in package "urca". I need to simulate the estimated model using R. I am aware how to simulate a VAR(p) model. Since the VECM is in difference form, I can't modify the VAR simulation codes to VECM. May one help me in this regard please? Thanks Mamush [[alternative HTML version

HI everyone, I''m trying to assign colors to multiple lines in a graph. Problem is I don''t want to type in as many colors as there are lines....is there a way around this? In brief, I''m plotting the logratio for up to 60 samples and want a different color for each sample. Here is the code I''m using now.. Any help is greatly appreciated.. Best LT data <-

Hi, everyone, I currently run into a problem about DCC-Garch model. I use the package cc-garch and the function dcc.estimation. One of the output of this function is DCC matrix, which shows conditional correlation matrix at every time period you gives. However, I cannot figue out how the function calculate the conditional correlation matrix at the first time period, since there is no data to be

1. I have a R program in a file say "functions.R". I load the "functions.R" file the R using source("function.R") and then call functionsf1(), f2() etc. which are declared and defined within "function.R" file. I also need to load a couple of R libraries using library() before I can use f1(), f2() etc. My question is can I acheive all this (i.e. calling

Hi, I am trying to build a series of rlm models. I have my data frame and the models will be built using various coulmns of the data frame. Thus a series of models would be m1 <- rlm(V1 ~ V2 + V3 + V4, data) m2 <- rlm(V1 ~ V2 + V5 + V7, data) m3 <- rlm(V1 ~ V2 + V8 + V9, data) I would like to automate this. Is it possible to use a string in place of the formula? I tried doing: fmla

Dear R-devel, There seems to be a discrepancy in the order in which lm and rlm evaluate their arguments. This causes rlm to sometimes produce an error where lm is just fine. Here is a little script that illustrate the issue: > library(MASS) > ## create data > n <- 100 > dat <- data.frame(x=rep(c(-1,0,1), n), y=rnorm(3*n)) > > ## call lm, works fine > summary(lm(y ~

Dear Group, I am having trouble with using rlm on multivariate data sets. When I call rlm I get Error in lm.wfit(x, y, w, method = "qr") : incompatible dimensions lm on the same data sets seem to work well (see code example). Am I doing something wrong? I have already browsed through the forums and google but could not find any related discussions. I use Windows XP and R

Hello, I have a simple xyplot with rlm lines. I would like to add the a and b coefficients (y=ax+b) of the rlm calculation in each panel. I know I can do it 'outside' the xyplot command but I would like to do all at the same time. I found some posts with the same question, but no answer. Is it impossible ? Thanks in advance for your help. Ptit Bleu. x11(15,12) xyplot(df1$col2 ~

I keep coming back to this problem of singular fits in rlm (MASS library), but cannot figure out a good solution. I am fitting a linear model with a factor variable, like lm( Y ~ factorVar) and this works fine. lm knows to construct the contrast matrix the way I would expect, which puts the first factor as the baseline level. But when I try rlm( Y ~ factorVar) I get the message "'x'

Hello, I'm trying to do a little rlm of some data that looks like this: UNIT COHORT perdo adjodds 1010 96 0.39890 1.06894 1010 97 0.48113 1.57500 1010 98 0.36328 1.21498 1010 99 0.44391 1.38608 It works fine like this: rlm(perdo ~ COHORT, psi=psisquare) But the problem is that I have about 100 UNITs, and I want to do a

Dear all, When calling rlm with the following data, I get an error. (R v.1.8.1, WinXP Pro 2002 with service pack 1.) > d <- na.omit(data.frame(CPRATIO, HEIGHTZ, FAMILYID)) > c <- tapply(d$CPRATIO, d$FAMILYID, mean) > h <- tapply(d$HEIGHTZ, d$FAMILYID, mean) > c 1 2 3 6 7 9 10 11 6.000000 2.500000 3.250000

Dear List, I used rlm to calculate two regression models for two data sets (rlm due to two outlying values in one of the data sets). Now I want to compare the two regression slopes. I came across some R-code of Spencer Graves in reply to a similar problem: http://www.mail-archive.com/r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch/msg06666.html The code was: > df1 <- data.frame(x=1:10, y=1:10+rnorm(10))

Hi all, I am reading the MASS book but it doesn't give examples about the diagnosis and model checking for rlm... My data is highly non-Gaussian so I am using rlm instead of lm. My questions are: 0. Are goodness-of-fit and model-checking using rlm completely the same as usual regression? 1. Please give me some pointers about how to do goodness-of-fit and residual diagnosis for

Hello all, I'm using R2.7.0 (on Windows 2000) and I'm trying do run a robust regression on following model structure: model = "Y ~ x1*x2 / (x3 + x4 + x5 +x6)" where x1 and x2 are both factors (either 1 or 0) and x3.....x6 are numeric. The error code I get when running rlm(as.formula(model), data=daymean) is: error in rlm.default(x, y, weights, method = method, wt.method =

Hei Group, I want to compare the relative importance of predictors in a multiple linear regression y~a+bx1+cx2... However, bptest indicates heteroskedasticity of my model. I therefore perform a robust regression (rlm), in combination with bootstrapping (as outlined in J. Fox, Bootstrapping Regression Models). Now I want to compare the relative importance of my predictors. Can I rely on the

Hi, I would appreciate of someone could explain how the residual standard error is computed for rlm models (MASS package). Usually, one would expect to get the residual standard error by > sqrt(sum((y-fitted(fm))^2)/(n-2)) where y is the response, fm a linear model with an intercept and slope for x and n the number of observations. This does not seem to work for rlm models and I am wondering

Dear r-bugs, I looked over the FAQ. Hope I'm reporting this correctly. I ran this on both solaris and windows. I've provided terminal snapshots which include how R was called from the command line, and the result of version at the R prompt. I have attached the .r file, and the data file and the output snapshots. Below also find everything except only a few lines of the data file. Note
