Usage

1
2
  solveLambda(R, starting_values, robust = TRUE,
    method = c("DEoptim"))

Arguments

R

xts object of asset returns. This should be the training data used to solve for the optimal smoothing matrix.

starting_values

starting values used as initial condition to estimate smoothed values.

robust

TRUE/FALSE (default=TRUE). If TRUE, use robust methods to solve for Lambda, the optimal smoothing matrix.

method

optimization method

Value

optimal smoothing matrix
