garch | R Documentation |
Fit a Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedastic GARCH(p, q) time series model to the data by computing the maximum-likelihood estimates of the conditionally normal model.

x |
a numeric vector or time series. |
order |
a two dimensional integer vector giving the orders of the
model to fit. |
series |
name for the series. Defaults to
|
control |
a list of control parameters as set up by |
maxiter |
gives the maximum number of log-likelihood function
evaluations |
trace |
logical. Trace optimizer output? |
start |
If given this numeric vector is used as the initial estimate
of the GARCH coefficients. Default initialization is to set the
GARCH parameters to slightly positive values and to initialize the
intercept such that the unconditional variance of the initial GARCH
is equal to the variance of |
grad |
character indicating whether analytical gradients or a numerical approximation is used for the optimization. |
abstol |
absolute function convergence tolerance. |
reltol |
relative function convergence tolerance. |
xtol |
coefficient-convergence tolerance. |
falsetol |
false convergence tolerance. |

garch
uses a Quasi-Newton optimizer to find the maximum
likelihood estimates of the conditionally normal model. The first
max(p, q) values are assumed to be fixed. The optimizer uses a hessian
approximation computed from the BFGS update. Only a Cholesky factor
of the Hessian approximation is stored. For more details see Dennis
et al. (1981), Dennis and Mei (1979), Dennis and More (1977), and
Goldfarb (1976). The gradient is either computed analytically or
using a numerical approximation.
