l.ARMA: Evaluate an ARMA TSmodel

In dse: Dynamic Systems Estimation (Time Series Package)

Description

Evaluate an ARMA TSmodel.

Usage

    ## S3 method for class 'ARMA'
l(obj1, obj2, sampleT=NULL, predictT=NULL,result=NULL,
       error.weights=0,  compiled=.DSEflags()$COMPILED, warn=TRUE, 
       return.debug.info=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

obj1	an 'ARMA' 'TSmodel' object.
obj2	a TSdata object.
sampleT	an integer indicating the number of periods of data to use.
predictT	an integer to what period forecasts should be extrapolated.
result	if non-NULL then the returned value is only the sub-element indicated by result. result can be a character string or integer.
error.weights	a vector of weights to be applied to the squared prediction errors.
compiled	indicates if a call should be made to the compiled code for computation. A FALSE value is mainly for testing purposes.
warn	if FALSE then certain warning messages are turned off.
return.debug.info	logical indicating if additional debugging information should be returned.
...	(further arguments, currently disregarded).

Details

This function is called by the function l() when the argument to l is an ARMA model (see ARMA). Using l() is usually preferable to calling l.ARMA directly. l.ARMA calls a compiled program unless compiled=FALSE. The compiled version is much faster.

sampleT is the length of data which should be used to calculate the one-step ahead predictions, and likelihood value for the model: Output data must be at least as long as sampleT. If sampleT is not supplied it is taken to be Tobs(data).

Input data must be at least as long as predictT. predictT must be at least as large as sampleT. If predictT is not supplied it is taken to be sampleT.

If error.weights is greater than zero then weighted prediction errors are calculated up to the horizon indicated by the length of error.weights. The weights are applied to the squared error at each period ahead.

Value

An object of class TSestModel (see TSestModel) containing the calculated likelihood, prediction, etc. for ARMA model.
