pick_Ami: Pick coefficient matrix

Description

pick_Ami picks the coefficient matrix \(A_{m,i}\) from the given parameter vector

Usage

pick_Ami(p, M, d, params, m, i, unvec = TRUE)

Arguments

p

a positive integer specifying the autoregressive order of the model.

M

a positive integer specifying the number of mixture components.

d

number of time series in the system, i.e. the dimension.

params

a real valued vector specifying the parameter values.

For regular models:

Should be size \(((M(pd^2+d+d(d+1)/2+1)-1)x1)\) and have form \(\theta\)\( = \)(\(\upsilon\)\(_{1}\), ...,\(\upsilon\)\(_{M}\), \(\alpha_{1},...,\alpha_{M-1}\)), where:

  • \(\upsilon\)\(_{m}\) \( = (\phi_{m,0},\)\(\phi\)\(_{m}\)\(,\sigma_{m})\)

  • \(\phi\)\(_{m}\)\( = (vec(A_{m,1}),...,vec(A_{m,p})\)

  • and \(\sigma_{m} = vech(\Omega_{m})\), m=1,...,M.

For constrained models:

Should be size \(((M(d+d(d+1)/2+1)+q-1)x1)\) and have form \(\theta\)\( = (\phi_{1,0},...,\phi_{M,0},\)\(\psi\) \(,\sigma_{1},...,\sigma_{M},\alpha_{1},...,\alpha_{M-1})\), where:

  • \(\psi\) \((qx1)\) satisfies (\(\phi\)\(_{1}\)\(,...,\) \(\phi\)\(_{M}) =\) \(C \psi\). Here \(C\) is \((Mpd^2xq)\) constraint matrix.

Above \(\phi_{m,0}\) is the intercept parameter, \(A_{m,i}\) denotes the \(i\):th coefficient matrix of the \(m\):th mixture component, \(\Omega_{m}\) denotes the error term covariance matrix of the \(m\):th mixture component and \(\alpha_{m}\) is the mixing weight parameter. If parametrization=="mean", just replace each \(\phi_{m,0}\) with regimewise mean \(\mu_{m}\). \(vec()\) is vectorization operator that stacks columns of a given matrix into a vector. \(vech()\) stacks columns of a given matrix from the principal diagonal downwards (including elements on the diagonal) into a vector. The notations are in line with the cited article by Kalliovirta, Meitz and Saikkonen (2016).

m

which component?

i

which lag in 1,...,p?

unvec

if FALSE then vectorized version of \(A_{m,i}\) will be returned instead of matrix. Default if TRUE.

Value

Returns the i:th lag coefficient matrix of m:th component, \(A_{m,i}\).

Warning

No argument checks!
