Portmanteau Test Statistics

Description

Univariate or multivariate portmanteau test statistics of BoxPierce, MahdiMcLeod, Hosking, LiMcLeod, LjungBox, and possibly any other test statistic using Monte-Carlo techniques or asymptotic distributions.

Usage

 portest(obj,lags=seq(5,30,5),test=c("MahdiMcLeod","BoxPierce","LjungBox",
      "Hosking","LiMcLeod","other"),fn=NULL,sqrd.res=FALSE,MonteCarlo=TRUE,
         innov.dist=c("Gaussian","t","bootstrap"), ncores=1,nrep=1000,
        model=list(sim.model=NULL,fit.model=NULL),pkg.name=NULL,set.seed=123,...)

Arguments

obj

if obj is an object of class "ar", "arima0", "Arima", ("ARIMA forecast ARIMA Arima"), "lm", ("glm" "lm"), "varest", or "list" then a portmanteau goodness-of-fit test is done on the fitted model. Otherwise, for obj with class "ts", "numeric", "matrix", or ("mts" "ts"), a test of randomness is done.

lags

vector of lag values is used for portmanteau test.

test

portmanteau test statistic type.

sqrd.res

as described in BoxPierce, MahdiMcLeod, Hosking, LiMcLeod, and LjungBox.

fn

a function calculates the test statistic that is associated with test = "other". For example, fn can be a function returns the generalized Durbin-Watson test statistic values calculated at different lags. This function has at least two inputs: obj and lags, where obj and lags are described as above.

MonteCarlo

if TRUE then apply the Monte-Carlo version of portmanteau statistic. Otherwise, apply the asymptotic distribution.

innov.dist

distribution to generate univariate or multivariate innovation process. This could be Gaussian, t, or bootstrap using resampled errors rather than distributed errors. Default is Gaussian.

ncores

number of cores needed to use in parallel calculations. Default is a single CPU.

nrep

number of replications needed for Monte-Carlo test.

model

additional argument defined as a list with two specified functions, sim.model and fit.model. This argument is needed when the class of obj is "list" (see details and following example).

pkg.name

the name of the required library to be loaded if the Monte-Carlo significance test is used with an object obj with class "list".

set.seed

set.seed is initialized. Default seed is 123, but users can use any seed they wish.

...

arguments to be passed to methods, such as dft degrees of freedom needed to generate innovations with univariate/multivariate series with t-distribution innovations, or trunc.lag used in varima.sim function, or fitdf and season as described in BoxPierce, LjungBox, Hosking, LiMcLeod and MahdiMcLeod.

Details

The portmanteau test statistics, MahdiMcLeod, BoxPierce, LjungBox, Hosking, and LiMcLeod are implemented based on the Monte-Carlo techniques and the approximation asymptotic distributions as described in Mahdi and McLeod (2012). Any other possible test statistic is also implemented in this function by selecting the argument test = "other" and providing the test statistic as a function passing the argument fn. The null hypothesis assuming that the fitted model is an adequate model and the residuals behave like white noise series. This function can be used for testing the adequacy in the nonseasonal fitted time series models. this function can be used to check for randomness as well as to check for ARCH-GARCH effects. Any other fitted model, for example, threashold autoregression model, may also be tested for adequacy. In this case, two functions, sim.model() and fit.model(), must be provided via the argument func. The object obj is the output of the fitted model coded in the function fit.model and it is a "list" with at least res, the residuals from the fitted model in fit.model(), and fitdf, the fitdf of this fitted model. The output from the function sim.model() is a simulated univariate or multivariate series from the fitted model obtained from the function fit.model(). The argument pkg.name represents the name of the R package where the fitted model build in (see the last given example). The parallel computing using the portes package proposed by Gonzalo Vera, Ritsert Jansen, and Remo Suppi (2008) will run if one decide to choose the argument MonteCarlo=TRUE provided that ncores equals to a positive integer more than 1.

Value

The portmanteau test statistic with the associated p-values for different lag values. When the argument MonteCarlo is set to be FALSE then the degrees of freedom will be an additional output.
