Andrews-Chen median-unbiased estimation for AR models

Description

This function returns the Andrews-Chen estimates for AR coefficients, residuals, and AR forecasts generated using the Andrews-Chen estimates

Usage

Andrews.Chen(x, p, h, type)

Arguments

x

a time series data set

p

AR order

h

the number of forecast periods

type

"const" for the AR model with intercept only, "const+trend" for the AR model with intercept and trend

Value

coef

Andrews-Chen median-unbiased estimates

ecm.coef

the coefficients in the ADF form

resid

residuals

forecast

point forecasts from Andrews-Chen estimates

Note

The Andrew-Chen estimator may break down when the AR order is very high. I recommend that AR order be kept low
