FDSimulate: Simulation of an FD process with time varying model...

In wconstan/fractal: A Fractal Time Series Modeling and Analysis Package

Description

Creates a realization of a time-varying fractionally differenced (FD) process with a given vector of FD parameters and corresponding vector of innovations variances.

Usage

FDSimulate(delta, innovations.var=1, method="ce", seed=0)

Arguments

delta	a vector containing time-varying FD parameters.
innovations.var	a numeric vector or scalar containing (time-varying) FD innovations variances. If a scalar, the value is replicated appropriately. Otherwise, the length of this input should match the length of the delta vector. Default: 1.
method	a character string defining the method to use in forming the FD realization. Choices are "ce" (circulent emebdding) and "cholesky". Default: "ce".
seed	a positive integer representing the initial seed value to use for the random number generator. If seed=0, the current time is used as a means of generating a (unique) seed value. Otherwise, the specified seed value is used. Default: 0.

Value

a vector containing a (time-varying) FD process realization corresponding to the input FD model parameters.

S3 METHODS

plot

plot the output object. Optional arguments include:

simulation

Plot the simulated series. Default: TRUE.

delta

Plot the FD parameter as a function of time. Default: TRUE.

innovations.var

Plot the innovations variance as a function of time. Default: TRUE.

print

print the output object.

Examples

## create a time-varying FD parameter, linearly 
## varying from white to pink noise, then jump 
## to a red noise plateau 
delta <- c(seq(0, 0.5, by=0.01), rep(1,100))

## set the innovations variance to unity 
innovation <- rep(1, length(delta))

## simulate a time-varying FD process 
z <- FDSimulate(delta=delta, innovation=innovation)
print(z)
plot(z)
