tseriesTARMA
Analysis of Nonlinear Time Series through Threshold Autoregressive Moving Average Models (TARMA) models
It provides advanced functions for:
- TARMA model fitting and forecasting:
- Least Squares fitting of a full subset TARMA model, including robust fitting based on M-estimators.
- Maximum Likelihood fitting of a subset TARMA model with common MA parts and possible covariates.
- TARMA testing for threshold type nonlinearity:
- Tests for AR vs TAR (asymptotic, bootstrap, wild bootstrap)
- Tests for ARMA vs TARMA with both i.i.d. errors and GARCH errors.
- Unit-root testing against a stationary TARMA model
