dlmModReg {dlm}

Create a DLM representation of a regression model

Description

The function creates a dlm representation of a linear regression model.

Usage

dlmModReg(X, addInt = TRUE, dV = 1, dW = rep(0, NCOL(X) + addInt),
          m0 = rep(0, length(dW)),
          C0 = 1e+07 * diag(nrow = length(dW)))

Arguments

X

the design matrix

addInt

logical: should an intercept be added?

dV

variance of the observation noise.

dW

diagonal elements of the variance matrix of the system noise.

m0

m_0, the expected value of the pre-sample state vector.

C0

C_0, the variance matrix of the pre-sample state vector.

Details

By setting dW equal to a nonzero vector one obtains a DLM representation of a dynamic regression model. The default value zero of dW corresponds to standard linear regression. Only univariate regression is currently covered.

Value

An object of class dlm representing the specified regression model.
