Qstat.sb.opt: Stationary Bootstrap for Q statistics

In quantilogram: Cross-Quantilogram

Stationary Bootstrap for Q statistics

Description

Stationary Bootstrap procedure to generate critical values for both Box-Pierece and Ljung-Box type Q-statistics with the choice of the stationary-bootstrap parameter.

Usage

Qstat.sb.opt(DATA, vecA, Psize, Bsize, sigLev)

Arguments

DATA	The original data
vecA	A pair of two probabity values at which sample quantiles are estimated
Psize	The maximum number of lags
Bsize	The number of repetition of bootstrap
sigLev	The statistical significance level

Details

This function returns critical values for for both Box-Pierece and Ljung-Box type Q-statistics through the statioanry bootstrap proposed by Politis and Romano (1994). To choose parameter for the statioanry bootstrap, this function first obtaines the optimal value for each time serie using the result provided by Politis and White (2004) and Patton, Politis and White (2004) (The R-package, "np", written by Hayfield and Racine is used). Next, the average of the obtained values is used as the parameter value.

Value

The bootstrap critical values

Examples

data("sys.risk") ## data source 
D = sys.risk[,c("Market", "JPM")] ## data: 2 variables 

# probability levels for the 2 variables 
vecA = c(0.1, 0.5)

## setup for stationary bootstrap
Bsize  = 5    ## small size, 5, for test
sigLev = 0.05 ## significance level

## Q statistics with lags from 1 to5
Qstat.sb.opt(D, vecA, 5, Bsize, sigLev)
