compute_fitted_values.PosteriorBSVARSV: Computes posterior draws from data predictive density

In bsvars: Bayesian Estimation of Structural Vector Autoregressive Models

Computes posterior draws from data predictive density

Description

Each of the draws from the posterior estimation of models from packages bsvars or bsvarSIGNs is transformed into a draw from the data predictive density.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'PosteriorBSVARSV'
compute_fitted_values(posterior)

Arguments

posterior

posterior estimation outcome - an object of class PosteriorBSVARSV obtained by running the estimate function.

Value

An object of class PosteriorFitted, that is, an NxTxS array with attribute PosteriorFitted containing S draws from the data predictive density.

Examples

specification  = specify_bsvar_sv$new(us_fiscal_lsuw)
burn_in        = estimate(specification, 5)
posterior      = estimate(burn_in, 5)

# compute draws from in-sample predictive density
csd     = compute_fitted_values(posterior)
