analyze_AssetCorr {AssetCorr}R Documentation

Function to evaluate several default time series simultaneously

Description

To give a first insight of several default time series, this function combines multiple estimator functions (intra and inter) and visualize the results.

Usage

analyze_AssetCorr(DTS,N, B=NA, DB=NA, JC=FALSE, CI_Boot=NA, Adjust=0.0001,
type="bca", Intra=c("AMM","FMM","CMM","JDP1","JDP2","MLE","AMLE","Beta","Mode"),
Inter=c("Copula","Cov","JDP","MLE"))

Arguments

DTS

a matrix, containing the default time series of each sector.

N

a matrix, containing the number of obligors at the beginning of the period of sector.

B

an integer, indicating how many bootstrap repetitions should be used for the single bootstrap corrected estimate (intra and inter).

DB

a combined vector, indicating how many bootstrap repetitions should be used for the inner (first entry) and outer loop (second entry) to correct the bias using the double bootstrap (intra and inter).

JC

a logical variable, indicating if the jackknife corrected estimate should be calculated (intra and inter).

CI_Boot

a number, indicating the desired confidence interval if the single bootstrap correction is specified. By default, the interval is calculated as the bootstrap corrected and accelerated confidence interval (Bca). Furthermore, the analytical confidence intervals are provided, using the same value as CI_Boot(intra and inter).

Adjust

a number, which should be added to a observed default rate of 0 or subtracted form a observed default rate of 1 (only for the intraAMLE).

type

a string, indicating the desired method to calculate the bootstrap confidence intervals. For more details see boot.ci. Studendized confidence intervals are not supported.

Intra

a combined string, indicating which intra correlation estimators should be used. All estimators are set as default.

Inter

a combined string, indicating which inter correlation estimators should be used. All estimators are set as default.

Details

To give an first insight, the function provides an overview of the several default time series and estimates using different estimators (intra and inter) simultaneously. The plug-in estimates of the intra correlation using inter correlation methods will be estimated via intraMLE. If DB is specified, the single bootstrap corrected estimate will be calculated by using the bootstrap values of the outer loop.
