logicals. If TRUE the automatic detection of outliers is enabled in the defined time span.
The time span of the series to be searched for outliers (default from 1900-01-01 to 2020-12-31) is controlled by the following six variables: outlier.from, outlier.to, outlier.first, outlier.last, outlier.exclFirst and outlier.exclLast; where outlier.from and outlier.to have priority over remaining span control variables, outlier.last and outlier.first have priority over outlier.exclFirst and outlier.exclLast, and outlier.last has priority over outlier.first.

determines how the program successively adds detected outliers to the model. At present only the AddOne method is supported.
numeric. The rate of decay for the transitory change outlier.
logicals. If TRUE the automatic modelling of the ARIMA model is enabled. If FALSE the parameters of the ARIMA model can be specified.
Control variables for the automatic modelling of the ARIMA model (automdl.enabled is set to TRUE):
logicals. If TRUE the default model (ARIMA(0,1,1)(0,1,1)) may be chosen in the first step of the automatic model identification. If the Ljung-Box Q statistics for the residuals is acceptable, the default model is accepted and no further attempt will be made to identify any other.
numeric, cancelation limit. If the difference in moduli of an AR and an MA roots (when estimating ARIMA(1,0,1)(1,0,1) models in the second step of the automatic identification of the differencing orders) is smaller than cancelation limit, the two roots are assumed equal and cancel out.
numeric, first unit root limit. It is the threshold value for the initial unit root test in the automatic differencing procedure. When one of the roots in the estimation of the ARIMA(2,0,0)(1,0,0) plus mean model, performed in the first step of the automatic model identification procedure, is larger than first unit root limit in modulus, it is set equal to unity.
numeric, second unit root limit. When one of the roots in the estimation of the ARIMA(1,0,1)(1,0,1) plus mean model, which is performed in the second step of the automatic model identification procedure, is larger than second unit root limit in modulus, it is checked if there is a common factor in the corresponding AR and MA polynomials of the ARMA model that can be cancelled (see automdl.cancel). If there is no cancellation, the AR root is set equal to unity (i.e. the differencing order changes).
logicals. The variable controls whether ARIMA models with non-seasonal AR and MA terms or seasonal AR and MA terms will be considered in the automatic model identification procedure. If FALSE a model with AR and MA terms in both the seasonal and non-seasonal parts of the model can be acceptable, provided there are not AR and MA terms in either the seasonal or non-seasonal.
logicals. If TRUE, the automatic model identification procedure will have a preference for balanced models (i.e. models for which the order of the combined AR and differencing operator is equal to the order of the combined MA operator).
numeric, arma limit. It is the threshold value for t-statistics of ARMA coefficients and constant term used for the final test of model parsimony. If the highest order ARMA coefficient has a t-value less than this value in magnitude, the order of the model is reduced. Also if the constant term has a t-value less than arma limit in magnitude, it is removed from the set of regressors.
numeric, ReduceCV. The percentage by which the outlier's critical value will be reduced when an identified model is found to have a Ljung-Box statistic with an unacceptable confidence coefficient. The parameter should be between 0 and 1, and will only be active when automatic outlier identification is enabled. The reduced critical value will be set to (1-ReduceCV)xCV, where CV is the original critical value.
numeric, Ljung Box limit. Acceptance criterion for the confidence intervals of the Ljung-Box Q statistic. If the LjungBox Q statistics for the residuals of a final model is greater than Ljung Box limit, the model is rejected, the outlier critical value is reduced, and model and outlier identification (if specified) is redone with a reduced value.
numeric, final unit root limit. The threshold value for the final unit root test. If the magnitude of an AR root for the final model is less than the final unit root limit, a unit root is assumed, the order of the AR polynomial is reduced by one, and the appropriate order of the differencing (non-seasonal, seasonal) is increased. The parameter value should be greater than one.

logicals. If TRUE, the mean is considered as part of the ARIMA model.

Control variables for the user-defined ARMA coefficients. Coefficients can be defined for the regular and seasonal autoregressive (AR) polynomials and moving average (MA) polynomials. The model considers the coefficients only if the procedure for their estimation (arima.coefType) is provided, and the number of provided coefficients matches the sum of (regular and seasonal) AR and MA orders (p,q,bp,bq).
logicals. If TRUE the program uses the user-defined ARMA coefficients.
vector providing the coefficients for the regular and seasonal AR and MA polynominals. The length of the vector must equal the sum of the regular and seasonal AR and MA orders. The coefficients shall be provided in the order: regular AR (Phi - p elements), regular MA (Theta - q elements), seasonal AR (BPhi - bp elements) and seasonal MA (BTheta - bq elements). E.g.: arima.coef=c(0.6,0.7) with arima.p=1, arima.q=0,arima.bp=1 and arima.bq=0.
vector defining ARMA coefficients estimation procedure. Possible procedures are: "Undefined" - no use of user-defined input (i.e. coefficients are estimated), "Fixed" - fixes the coefficients at the value provided by the user, "Initial" - the value defined by the user is used as initial condition. For orders for which the coefficients shall not be defined, the arima.coef can be set to NA or 0 or the arima.coefType can be set to "Undefined".
E.g.: arima.coef = c(-0.8,-0.6,NA), arima.coefType = c("Fixed","Fixed","Undefined").
numeric, forecasts horizon. Length of the forecasts generated by the RegARIMA model in periods (positive values) or years (negative values). By default the program generates two years forecasts (fcst.horizon set to -2).
character, decomposition mode. Determines the mode of the seasonal adjustment decomposition to be performed: "Undefined" - no assumption concerning the relationship between the time series components is made; "Additive" - assumes an additive relationship; "Multiplicative" - assumes a multiplicative relationship; "LogAdditive" - performs an additive decomposition of the logarithms of the series being adjusted; "PseudoAdditive" - assumes an pseudo-additive relationship. Could be changed by the program, if needed.
logicals. If TRUE the program computes a seasonal component. Otherwise, the seasonal component is not estimated and its values are all set to 0 (additive decomposition) or 1 (multiplicative decomposition).
numeric, lower sigma boundary for the detection of extreme values.
numeric, upper sigma boundary for the detection of extreme values.
logicals, automatic Henderson filter. If TRUE an automatic selection of the Henderson filter's length for the trend estimation is enabled.
numeric, length of the Henderson filter. The user-defined length of the Henderson filter. The option is available when the automatic Henderson filter selection is disabled (x11.trendAuto=FALSE). Should be an odd number in the range (1, 101].
vector of character(s) specifying which seasonal moving average (i.e. seasonal filter) will be used to estimate the seasonal factors for the entire series. The vector can be of length: 1 - same seasonal filters for all periods (e.g.: seasonalma=c("Msr")); or period's number - a seasonal filer is defined for each period (e.g. for quarterly series: seasonalma=c("S3X3","Msr","S3X3","Msr")). Possible filters are: "Msr", "Stable", "X11Default", "S3X1", "S3X3", "S3X5", "S3X9", "S3X15". "Msr" - the program chooses the final seasonal filter automatically.
numeric, RegARIMA forecast. Length of the forecasts generated by the RegARIMA model in periods (positive values) or years (negative values).
numeric, backcast. Length of the backcasts used in X11. Negative figures are translated in years of backcasts.
logicals, exclude forecats and backcasts. If TRUE forecasts and backcasts from the RegARIMA model are not used in the generation of extreme values in the seasonal adjustment routines.
a univariate time series
vector with characters for additional output variables (see user_defined_variables).
logicals, exact maximum likelihood estimation. If TRUE the program performs an exact maximum likelihood estimation. If FASLE the Unconditional Least Squares method is used.
numeric, final unit root limit. The threshold value for the final unit root test for identification of differencing orders. If the magnitude of an AR root for the final model is less than this number, a unit root is assumed, the order of the AR polynomial is reduced by one, and the appropriate order of the differencing (non-seasonal, seasonal) is increased.
numeric controlling the bias in the log/level pre-test: transform.fct > 1 favours levels, transform.fct< 1 favours logs. Considered only when transform.function is set to "Auto".
Control variables for the pre-specified outliers. The pre-specified outliers are used in the model only if they are enabled (usrdef.outliersEnabled=TRUE) and the outliers' type (usrdef.outliersType) and date (usrdef.outliersDate) are provided.
defines whether the calendar effects should be added to the model manually ("Unused") or automatically. In the automatic selection, the choice of the number of calendar variables can be based on the F-Test ("FTest") or the Wald Test ("WaldTest"); the model with higher F value is chosen, provided that it is higher than tradingdays.pftd).
numeric. P-value applied in the test specified by the automatic parameter (tradingdays.mauto) to assess the significance of the pre-tested calendar effects variables and whether they should be included in the RegArima model.
Control variables for the manual selection of calendar effects variables (tradingdays.mauto is set to "Unused"):
specifies the presence and the length of the Easter effect: "Unused" - Easter effect is not considered; "Standard" - influences the period of n days strictly before Easter Sunday; "IncludeEaster" - influences the entire period (n) up to and including Easter Sunday; "IncludeEasterMonday" - influences the entire period (n) up to and including Easter Monday.
logicals, exact likelihood estimation method.Controls the method applied for a parameter estimation in the intermediate steps of the automatic detection and correction of outliers. If TRUE an exact likelihood estimation method is used, when FALSE the fast Hannan-Rissanen method is used.
logicals. If TRUE the program compares the model identified by the automatic procedure to the default model (ARIMA(0,1,1)(0,1,1)) and the model with the best fit is selected. Criteria considered are residual diagnostics, the model structure and the number of outliers.
Control variables for the non-automatic modelling of the ARIMA model (automdl.enabled is set to FALSE):
character, approximation mode. When the ARIMA model estimated by TRAMO does not accept an admissible decomposition, SEATS: "None" - performs an approximation; "Legacy" - replaces the model with a decomposable one; "Noisy" - estimates a new model by adding a white noise to the non-admissible model estimated by TRAMO.
numeric, trend boundary. The boundary from which an AR root is integrated in the trend component. If the modulus of the inverse real root is greater than Trend boundary, the AR root is integrated in the trend component. Below this value the root is integrated in the transitory component.
numeric, seasonal boundary. Boundary from which a negative AR root is integrated in the seasonal component.
numeric, seasonal boundary (unique). Boundary from which a negative AR root is integrated in the seasonal component when the root is the unique seasonal root.
numeric, seasonal tolerance. The tolerance (measured in degrees) to allocate the AR non-real roots to the seasonal component (if the modulus of the inverse complex AR root is greater than Trend boundary and the frequency of this root differs from one of the seasonal frequencies by less than Seasonal tolerance) or the transitory component (otherwise).
numeric, MA unit root boundary. When the modulus of an estimated MA root falls in the range (xl, 1), it is set to xl.
character, estimation method of the unobserved components. The choice can be made from: "Burman" (default, may result in a significant underestimation of the standard deviations of the components as it may become numerically unstable when some roots of the MA polynomial are near 1); "KalmanSmoother" (it is not disturbed by the (quasi-) unit roots in MA); "McElroyMatrix" (has the same stability issues as the Burman's algorithm).
