factors

Generic Function to Extract Estimated Factors

Provides a comprehensive framework in R for modeling and forecasting economic scenarios based on multi-level dynamic factor model. The package enables users to: (i) extract global and group-specific factors using a flexible multi-level factor structure; (ii) compute asymptotically valid confidence regions for the estimated factors, accounting for uncertainty in the factor loadings; (iii) obtain estimates of the parameters of the factor-augmented quantile regressions together with their standard deviations; (iv) recover full predictive conditional densities from estimated quantiles; (v) obtain risk measures based on extreme quantiles of the conditional densities; (vi) estimate the conditional density and the corresponding extreme quantiles when the factors are stressed.
