local.W: Local Whittle estimator of fractional difference parameter d.

In FunWithR/LongMemoryTS: Long Memory Time Series

Description

local.W Semiparametric local Whittle estimator for memory parameter d following Robinson (1995). Returns estimate and asymptotic standard error.

Usage

local.W(data, m, int = c(-0.5, 2.5), taper = c("none", "Velasco",
  "HC"), diff_param = 1, l = 1)

Arguments

data	vector of length T.
m	bandwith parameter specifying the number of Fourier frequencies. used for the estimation usually floor(1+T^delta), where 0<delta<1.
int	admissible range for d. Restricts the interval of the numerical optimization.
taper	string that is either "none", "Velasco", or "HC" and determines whether the standard local Whittle estimator of Robinson (1995), the tapered version of Velasco (1999), or the differenced and tapered estimator of Hurvich and Chen (2000) is used.
diff_param	integer specifying the order of differentiation for the estimator of Hurvich and Chen (2000). Default is diff_param=1.
l	integer that determines how many frequencies (l-1) are trimmed out if taper="none" is selected. Default is l=1.
