tvReg: Time-Varying Coefficient for Single and Multi-Equation Regressions

Description

This package covers a large range of semiparametric regression methods with time-varying coefficients using nonparametric kernel smoothing for the estimation.

Main functions

The five basic functions in this package are tvLM, tvAR, tvSURE, tvPLM, tvVAR and tvIRF. Moreover, this package provides the confint, fitted, forecast, plot, predict, print, resid and summary methods adapted to the class attributes of the tvReg. In addition, it includes bandwidth selection methods, time-varying variance-covariance estimators and four estimation procedures: the time-varying ordinary least squares, which are implemented in the tvOLS methods, the time-varying generalised least squares for a list of equations, which is implemented in the tvGLS methods, time-varying pooled and random effects estimators for panel data, which are implemented in the tvRE and the time-varying fixed effects estimator, which is implemente in the tvFE.
