Ksmooth2: Kalman Filter and Smoother - General model, may have correlated errors

Description

Returns the filtered and smoothed values in Property 6.5 on page 354 for the state-space model, (6.97) -- (6.99). This is the smoother companion to Kfilter2.

Usage

Ksmooth2(num, y, A, mu0, Sigma0, Phi, Ups, Gam, Theta, cQ, cR, 
          S, input)

Arguments

num
number of observations
y
data matrix, vector or time series
A
time-varying observation matrix, an array with dim=c(q,p,n)
mu0
initial state mean
Sigma0
initial state covariance matrix
Phi
state transition matrix
Ups
state input matrix; use Ups = 0 if not needed
Gam
observation input matrix; use Gam = 0 if not needed
Theta
state error pre-matrix
cQ
Cholesky-type decomposition of state error covariance matrix Q -- see details below
cR
Cholesky-type decomposition of state error covariance matrix R -- see details below
S
covariance matrix of state and observation errors
input
matrix or vector of inputs having the same row dimension as y; use input = 0 if not needed

Value

  • xsstate smoothers
  • Pssmoother mean square error
  • Jthe J matrices
  • xpone-step-ahead prediction of the state
  • Ppmean square prediction error
  • xffilter value of the state
  • Pfmean square filter error
  • likethe negative of the log likelihood
  • Knlast value of the gain

Details

Practically, the script only requires that Q or R may be reconstructed as t(cQ)%*%(cQ) or t(cR)%*%(cR), respectively, which allows more flexibility.
