The function profiles an estimated model by simulating and then estimating multiple paths from the assumed DGP while leaving h values out for prediction evaluation. Each simulated path is equal to the size of the original dataset plus h additional values, and initialized with the initial state vector from the model. The resulting output contains the distribution of the MAPE, percent bias (BIAS) and mean squared log relative error (MSLRE) per horizon h. Since these matrices are of class “tsmodel.distribution” they can be readily plotted with the special purpose “plot” function for this class from the “tsmethods” package. Additionally, a data.table matrix is also returned with the distribution of the coefficients from each path estimation.
