pick_Ami picks the coefficient matrix \(A_{m,i}\) from the given parameter vector.
pick_Ami(p, M, d, params, m, i, unvec = TRUE)a positive integer specifying the autoregressive order of the model.
a positive integer specifying the number of mixture components.
number of time series in the system, i.e. the dimension.
a real valued vector specifying the parameter values.
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.
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 notation is in line with the cited article by Kalliovirta, Meitz and Saikkonen (2016) introducing the GMVAR model.
which component?
which lag in 1,...,p?
if FALSE then vectorized version of \(A_{m,i}\) will be returned instead of matrix.
Default if TRUE.
Returns the i:th lag coefficient matrix of m:th component, \(A_{m,i}\).
No argument checks!
