Estimation of a VAR by imposing zero restrictions manually or by
significance.
Usage
restrict_sh(x, ...)
Value
An object of class "varest", a VAR model fitted using ordinary
least squares. It contains an additional element restrictions, which
is a zero-one matrix indicating which variables were fixed to zero.
Arguments
x
An object of class "varshrinkest"
...
Other arguments to vars::restrict()
Details
This is a modification of vars::restrict() for the class
"varshrinkest". Given an estimated VAR object of class "varest" or
"varshrinkest", a restricted VAR is obtained by choosing method "ser"
or "manual". Note: this function fits a restricted VAR using ordinary least
squares rather than a shrinkage method.
