decomposition {VBV}R Documentation

decomposition - decompose a time series with VBV

Description

decomposition - decompose a time series with VBV

Usage

decomposition(t.vec, p, q.vec, base.period, lambda1, lambda2)

Arguments

t.vec

vector of observation points.

p

maximum exponent in polynomial for trend

q.vec

vector containing frequencies to use for seasonal component, given as integers, i.e. c(1, 3, 5) for 1/2pi, 3/2pi, 5/2*pi (times length of base period)

base.period

base period in number of observations, i.e. 12 for monthly data with yearly oscillations

lambda1

penalty weight for smoothness of trend

lambda2

penalty weight for smoothness of seasonal component (lambda1 == lambda2 == Inf result in estimations of the original Berliner Verfahren)

Value

list with the following components:

Examples

### Usage of decomposition
t <- 1:121 # equidistant time points, i.e. 5 days
p <- 2     # maximally quadratic
q <- c(1, 3, 5)   # 'seasonal' components within the base period
base.period <- 24 # i.e. hourly data with daily cycles
l1 <- 1    
l2 <- 10

dec <- decomposition( t, p, q, base.period, l1, l2)
### Note: decomosition is independent of data, only depends on time
