segMGarch (version 1.2)

tvMGarch-class: An S4 class for a nonstationary multivariate class model.

Description

A specification class to create an object of a nonstationary multivariate class model reserved for real (empirical) applications. It inherits from simMGarch.

Slots

out_of_sample_prop

Proportion of y to keep for out-of-sample forecasting expressed in %.

out_of_sample_y

The out of sample y matrix reserved for forecasting and backtesting exercises.

in_sample_y

The in-sample y matrix reserved for estimation (calibration) and change-point detection.
