similar to: GMM estimation

Hello, although I searched for a solution related to my problem I didn?t find one, yet. My skills in R aren?t very large, however. For my Diploma thesis I need to run a GMM estimation on a dynamic panel model using the "pgmm" - function in the plm-Package. The model I want to estimate is: "Y(t) = Y(t-1) + X1(t) + X2(t) + X3(t)" . There are no "normal" instruments

Hello -- The question I have is about the gmm() function from the 'gmm' package (v. 1.4-5). The manual accompanying the package says that the gmm() function is programmed to use either of four numerical solvers -- optim, optimize, constrOptim, or nlminb -- for the minimization of the GMM objective function. I wonder whether there is a way to pass controls to a solver used while calling

Dear, I built the generalized method of moments model to estimate the sales rank in the bookstore using plm package in R. The equation is: data1.gmm <- pgmm(dynformula(lnsales_rank ~ ln_price + avg_ham_rate + avg_spam_rate + num_of_ham+ num_of_spam + ship_code2 +ship_code3 +ship_code4+ ship_code5+ ship_code6 + ship_ code7, lag = list(0, 0, 0, 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0), log =FALSE), data=data,

Each of the equations has one unique regressor and one common regressor. I am using `gmm::sysGmm` and am experimenting with different weighting matrices.

Generally speaking, this sort of detailed statistical question about a speccial package in R does not get a reply on this general R programming help list. Instead, I suggest you either email the maintainer (found by ?maintainer) or ask a question on a relevant R task view, such as https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Econometrics.html . (or any other that you judge to be more appropriate).

Inthe code below I was trying to to obtain the GMM estimates for CAPM (REGRESSION) for 36 stocks each have 180 observations,however it only gives me one output rather than 36. In SAS i would just put in a *By statement*. I have a variable TICKER that categorize them into 36 groups. *How can I obtain all 36 output instead of just one.* **

Dear everyone: I have to finish my thesis to graduate as Bs. in Economics. I choose to estimate a New Keynesian Phillips Curve (NKPC) for Uruguay using Generalized Moment Method (GMM). I do not know programming or R but I would like to use it. Should I use gee, geepack or gam? Thanks in advance, Sebasti?n. *************************************** ?Hola todos! Para terminiar mi

I have a relatively simple finance application of GMM. Given the moment condition: E[m*R]=0 where m=m[theta] I would like to constrain m>0. Any ideas? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am trying to generate a set of data points from a Gaussian mixture model. My mixture model is represented by a data frame that looks like this: > gmm weight mean sd 1 0.3 0 1.0 2 0.2 -2 0.5 3 0.4 4 0.7 4 0.1 5 0.3 I have written the following function that generates the appropriate data: gmm_data <- function(n, gmm) { c(rnorm(n*gmm[1,]$weight, gmm[1,]$mean,

Hi, I'm trying to use gmm package in order to calculate linear regression (I need to use the gmm for other application and this is a prior test I'm doing). I've defined a function for linear regression with 2 variables (x[,1] holds the y values, while x[,2:3] holds the x values): function(tet, x) { m1 <- (x[,1] - (tet[1] + tet[2] * x[,2] + tet[3] * x[,3])) * x[,2] m2 <-

I impose a restriction that

hello I have covariance stacionary proces, and i want to estimate some parameter of this proces via gmm. My problem is with write "g" -function. 0 order autocovariance is not problem 1 and higher order autocavariance are problem, because add order from 0 mean that I "loose" one "observacion" if I have 100 observation and i am going to use mean, variance and first

Hi All, I'm trying to estimate some parameters in my model via GMM using the function gmm(), but I keep getting the message "The covariance matrix of the coefficients is singular". I've changed the moment conditions and the initial value of the parameters, and I still get this message. Are the results valid after receiving this message? Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Dear R Experts--- Sorry for all the questions yesterday and today. I am trying to use Yves Croissant's pgmm function in the plm package with Blundell-Bond moments. I have read the Blundell-Bond paper, and want to run the simplest model first, d[i,t] = a*d[i,t-1] + fixed[i] + u[i,t] . no third conditioning variables yet. the full set of moment conditions recommended for system-GMM,

Hi! I am looking for some insight with this situation: what to do or how to analyze when our models fitted with pgmm never pass Sargant test? With my current dataset, I've been fitting different models and with all possible combinations of lagged instruments, with all possible lag order combinations, but no model passes Sargan test. I can not give up gmm here as I have autocorrelation and

Hello, I have a set of 100 variables with 1560 observations. I did an O.L.S regression of three of these variables on a fourth. But there are problems of endogeneity... So I look in my dataset for instruments to do an IV. I can't find a good instrument because their correlation with my endogeneous variables are too low. But I see that when I create a combined variable composed of 12 variables

Hi list, has anyone succeeded in using pgmm() on any dataset besides Arellano/Bond's EmplUK, as shown in the vignette? Whatever I try, I eventually get a runtime error because of a singular matrix at various points in pgmm.diff() (which gets called by pgmm()). For example, when estimating a "dynamic" version of the Grunfeld data: data(Grunfeld, package="Ecdat") grun

I’m starting to use the GMM estimator with panel data in R. I´ve read the document «Panel Data Econometrics in R: The plm Package» (Croissant and Millo). In Stata before using the functions lag() or diff() we must sort the data by individual and by time. I would like to know if I have to do something like this in R. If you know any other interesting document about panel data in R please let me

I have a problem in estimating GMM estimators with constraints. How can I do this? [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I am currently looking for a program or programmng language easy to learn, easier to operate on.I heva heard about "R", However I understand that "R" is designed especially for statisticians. As an economist, working on applied econometrics, I am not sure if it can meet my needs. Will I be able to reach precise time series or panal data regression results with
