summary.FCVAR_model {FCVAR}

Summarize Estimation Results from the FCVAR model

Description

summary.FCVAR_model prints a summary of the estimation results from the output of FCVARestn. FCVARestn estimates the Fractionally Cointegrated VAR model. It is the central function in the FCVAR package with several nested functions. It estimates the model parameters, calculates the standard errors and the number of free parameters, obtains the residuals and the roots of the characteristic polynomial.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'FCVAR_model'
summary(object, ...)

Arguments

object

An S3 object containing the estimation results of FCVARestn.

...

additional arguments affecting the summary produced.

Examples

opt <- FCVARoptions()
opt$gridSearch   <- 0 # Disable grid search in optimization.
opt$dbMin        <- c(0.01, 0.01) # Set lower bound for d,b.
opt$dbMax        <- c(2.00, 2.00) # Set upper bound for d,b.
opt$constrained  <- 0 # Impose restriction dbMax >= d >= b >= dbMin ? 1 <- yes, 0 <- no.
