Hi all, I've experienced this problem using StructTS(x) when the *first* element of x is a NA (R:R1.7.0, os: w2ksp4). Please look at the following code: a=rep(1:7,10) library(ts) #this works StructTS(a) #this works x=a x[2]=NA StructTS(x) #this doesn't work x=a x[1]=NA StructTS(x) The last command returns this error "Error in optim(init[mask], getLike,

I've just built R 2.9.2 from source on Slackware Linux 13.0 - 32-bit (will try 64-bit also next) - and seen: > Collecting examples for package 'stats' > Running examples in package 'stats' > Error: testing 'stats' failed > Execution halted > make[3]: *** [test-Examples-Base] Error 1 Looking at R-2.9.2/tests/Examples/stats-Ex.Rout.fail I see: ... >

I have a set of data (in a matrix). I spliced a column out and parsed it as.ts (time series). I then plotted the time series but I found that it was very noisy. I wanted to smooth it out. However, I am having some problems smoothing and plotting the smoothed version. > A <- as.ts(read.table(choose.files())) > x <- as.ts(A[,10]) > plot(x) > > plot(smooth(x))

Hi All, I have checked everything I could find abot graphics, but still cannot solve the problem. Are there any ways to make a graph that plots two lines and two different y-axes, each of them has a scale that is related to the respective line. For example, y1 has a range 1:50 and y1 ranges 0:1. The x-axe is the same for both. Thank you in advance. --- Gregor Gawron

I apologize in advance if I picked the wrong list to post this to. I have made an effort to find the answers to these questions on CRAN, but if they are there, I couldn't find them, and I was going to email the developer of StructTS directly but could not find who that is. I have 2 interrelated questions about StructTS 1. Where can I obtain the source code for StructTS if I wanted to

Dear R-users, I am facing a trivial problem when trying to parameterise the start date of a time series object. I am working with monthly data (104) performing n-steps-ahead (6) forecasts and using a fixed window size (36). At the end of calculations I have a list that contains 69 forecasts. I have no problems in fixing the window size by parametrization, e.g. k<- control variable in a for

Hi to all, First of all, I prefer to tell that I am a R-newbie, so I apologize if this is a silly question (I have tried looking in the manuals, but without luck). I have two variables, y and z, that I want to plot against x in the same plot. I have done this before, using points() after plot(). But now the problem is that y and z are in different units of measurement, and their ranges are very

Dear All, I am trying to fit a structural time series model using the StructTS function (package stats) with only 2 seasons (summer and winter). More than 2 seasons work fine but with 2 seasons I get this error: > fit <- StructTS(y.ts, type="BSM") Error in T[cbind(ind + 1L, ind)] <- 1 : subscript out of bounds I have looked at Prof. Ripley's 2002 RNews article but cannot

Dear R-bugs I have been studying the StructTS function (in package 'stats') and functions supplied with it. I think I have found a few minor bugs in the documentation. I am referring to the version of StructTS supplied with the release R 2.0.0. Output from 'version' platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status

Dear all, I'd like to discuss about a possible bug in function StructTS of stats package. It seems that the function returns wrong value of the log-likelihood, as the added constant to the relevant part of the log-likelihood is misspecified. Here is an simple example: > data(Nile) > fit <- StructTS(Nile, type = "level") > fit$loglik [1] -367.5194 When computing the

In the examples for StructTS -- ($RHOME)/library/stats/man/StructTS.Rd -- could par(mfrow = c(4, 1)) plot(log10(UKgas)) plot(cbind(fitted(fit), resids=resid(fit)), main = "UK gas consumption") become plot(log10(UKgas)) par(mfrow = c(4, 1)) plot(cbind(fitted(fit), resids=resid(fit)), main = "UK gas consumption") ## Note that par was moved down This makes the plot of UKgas

Hi, I used function StructTS some time ago to fit a structural model to a time series. Now with R 1.6.2-1 I repeated the analysis with the same series and I get the following error: Error in KalmanLike2(y, Z, -1) : invalid argument type I tried with other series and I get the same error; I checked the examples in the documentation and they work fine. I suspect I am missing something

Hello, Does anybody know if (and how) it is possible to obtain standard errors of estimated variances from StructTS? (R 2.10.0). Thank you in advance, Giovanni

Dear All I would like to use the StructTS function in the ts library to fit the ' BSM ' model. I have some, probably basics, questions about the model and about the function(s): 1) How can I check the statistical significance of the estimated parameters(variances)? 2) Is there some way to find what component "dominate" the series? 3) Is there a function to produce

To whomever it may concern, I'm a young Industrial Engineer working on Senior Design at Georgia Tech and have found the StructTS method to be excellent for the training set for my forecasting project. There's only one problem: I don't actually understand what a Structural Time Series IS. I've looked up resources on it, and get that essentially you're dividing the Time

Dear all: I want to modify the 'StructTS' function from the 'stats' package. First, I am writing a working copy of the original version and got some problems. I have two versions of the function plus the original one. The first version is the same code as the 'StructTS' function: StructTS.v1 <- function (x, type = c("level", "trend",

I am having problems with forward prediction using the output of the Basic Structural Model from StructTS. The following snippet illustrates the problem: t_end <- 139 nahead <- 20 data(AirPassengers) ap <- log10(AirPassengers)-2 fit <- StructTS(ts(ap[1:t_end], freq=12), type="BSM") p <- stats:::predict.StructTS(fit, n.ahead=nahead) plot(1:t_end, ap[1:t_end],

Dear List, I am thinking about ways in which I might analyse some stratigraphic data. The nature of the data series I have generates a number of issues: 1) The data I have in mind come from a sediment core sequence taken from the bottom of a lake. The sequence is sliced into a priori defined slices, in this case 0.2cm per slice. in this way a sequence of 0.2cm slices is produced for the
