使用mvrnorm预测相关值并包括时间自相关

标签: r matrix time-series correlation forecasting

我有按时间步长和年龄段分类的值(体重,成熟度等)的矩阵,我想不确定地预测未来的值。年龄类别不是独立的,所以我一直在使用mvrnorm来处理。我如何在预测中获得(滞后1)时间自相关?

这是我想在R中做的事情:

  library(MASS)
# dummy matrix: rows are time steps columns are dependent classes (ages)
  x <- matrix(rnorm(20),4,5,dimnames = list(years=c('year1','year2','year3','year4'),ages=c('age1','age2','age3','age4','age5')))

# what I have so far to get next year's values (the goal would be to predict several years)
  sigma <- cov(x) #covariance matrix
  delta <- mvrnorm(1,rep(0,ncol(x)),cov(x)) # deviations
  xl <- tail(x,1) #last year values
  xp <- xl+delta #new values

 # There is no temporal autocorrelation in here of course
  xnew <- rbind(x,xp)
  matplot(xnew,type='l')

# So I would need new values based on something like this:
  rho <- apply(x,2,function(x) acf(x)$acf[2,1,1])
  delta <- mvrnorm(1,xl,cov(x))
  xp <- rho*xl+(1-rho)*delta

最后一部分感觉不对。

此答案的第一部分是如何在原始问题中说明时间自相关。第二部分在每个修订后的问题中添加了有关多变量案例的答案。

第1部分:

library(MASS)
# dummy matrix: rows are time steps columns are dependent classes (ages)
x <- matrix(rnorm(20),4,5)

# what I have so far to get next year's values (the goal would be to predict several years)
sigma <- cov(x)
delta <- mvrnorm(1,rep(0,ncol(x)),cov(x))
xl <- tail(x,1)
xp <- xl+delta #new values

# There is no temporal autocorrelation in here of course
xnew <- rbind(x,xp)
matplot(xnew,type='l')

# Clean up / construct your data set
dat           <- as.data.frame(x)
dat$year      <- c(2014,2015,2016,2017)
dat           <- rbind(dat, c(xp, 2018))
colnames(dat) <- c("maturity", "age", "height", "sales", "year")
