VAR中的非连续滞后数(R包“变量”)

是否有可能(在“vars”包中或者在其他R包中?)将非连续滞后包含在var模型中,即只是滞后1和3。

到目前为止,看起来当我在函数VAR下设置p = 3时,它包括1和p之间的所有连续滞后(即1:3)。

答案 0 :(得分:3)

您可以使用vars包中的restrict来估算受限制的VAR。此方法需要对模型进行两次估计:1)具有所有“连续滞后”的无限制模型和2)仅具有所需滞后的受限模型。就是这样,因为restrict函数将类'varest'的对象作为输入。看看我的选择:

> library(vars)
> data(Canada) # some data
> model <- VAR(Canada[,1:2], p=3) # The unrestricted VAR
> #Bcoef(model) The restriction matrix have to have the same dimension as dim(Bcoef(model))

# Building the restriction matrix
> Restrict <- matrix(c(1,1,0,0,1,1,1,
                       1,1,0,0,1,1,1), nrow=2, byrow=TRUE)

# Re-estimating the VAR with only lags 1 and 3 
> restrict(model, method = "man", resmat = Restrict)
