Estimate Spectral Density of a Time Series from AR Fit

Description

Fits an AR model to data and computes (and by default plots) the spectral density of the fitted model based on AIC (default) or BIC.

Usage

spec.ic(xdata, BIC=FALSE, order.max=NULL, main=NULL, plot=TRUE, detrend=TRUE, 
         lowess=FALSE, method=NULL, cex.main=NULL, xlab=NULL, ...)

Arguments

xdata

a univariate time series.

BIC

if TRUE, fit is based on BIC. If FALSE (default), fit is based on AIC.

order.max

maximum order of model to fit. Defaults (if NULL) to the minimum of 100 and 10% of the number of observations.

main

plot title. Defaults to name of series, method and chosen order.

plot

if TRUE (default) produces a graphic of the estimated AR spectrum.

detrend

if TRUE (default), detrends the data first. If FALSE, the series is demeaned.

lowess

if TRUE, detrends using lowess. Default is FALSE.

method

method of estimation - a character string specifying the method to fit the model chosen from the following: "yule-walker", "burg", "ols", "mle", "yw". Defaults to "yule-walker".

cex.main

magnification for main title; default is 1.

xlab

label for frequency axis; if NULL (default), a totally awesome label is generated for your viewing pleasure.

...

additional graphical arguments.

Details

Uses ar to fit the best AR model based on pseudo AIC or BIC. Using method='mle' will be slow. The minimum centered AIC and BIC values and the spectral and frequency ordinates are returned silently.

Value

[[1]]

Matrix with columns: ORDER, AIC, BIC

[[2]]

Matrix with columns: freq, spec
