genexp {midasr}

Generalized exponential MIDAS coefficients

Description

Calculates the MIDAS coefficients for generalized exponential MIDAS lag specification

Usage

genexp(p, d, m)

Arguments

p

a vector of parameters

d

number of coefficients

m

the frequency, currently ignored

Details

Generalized exponential MIDAS lag specification is a generalization of exponential Almon lag. It is defined as a product of first order polynomial with exponent of the second order polynomial. This spefication was used by V. Kvedaras and V. Zemlys (2012).

Value

a vector of coefficients
