Get_L_inv_y: vector of half of the sum of squares

Description

This function computes the inverse of L matrix multiples the output vector, where the L matrix is the Cholesky decomposition of the correlation matrix. Instead of computing the Cholesky matrix, we compute it using the forward filtering algorithm.

Usage

Get_L_inv_y(GG,VV,Q,K,output)

Arguments

GG

a list of matrices defined in the dynamic linear model.

VV

a numerical value of the variance of the nugget parameter.

Q

a vector defined in the dynamic linear model.

K

a matrix defined in the filtering algorithm for the dynamic linear model.

output

a vector of output.

Value

A vector of the inverse of L matrix multiples the output vector, where the L matrix is the Cholesky decomposition of the correlation matrix.
