adf

Purpose

Computes the Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test.

Format

{ tstat, lags, cv } = adf(y, model[, pmax, ic])
Parameters:
  • y (Nx1 matrix) – Time series data to be tested.
  • model (Scalar) –

    Model to be implemented.

    0 No constant or trend.
    1 Constant.
    2 Constant and trend.
  • pmax (Scalar) – Optional, the maximum number of lags for \(\Delta y\). Default = 8.
  • ic (Scalar) –

    Optional, the information criterion used for choosing lags. Default = 3.

    1 Akaike.
    2 Schwarz.
    3 t-stat significance.
Returns:
  • tstat (Scalar) – Dickey-Fuller test statistic.
  • lags (Scalar) – Number of lags selected by chosen information criterion.
  • cv (Vector) – 1%, 5%, and 10% critical values for ADF \(\tau\)-stat.

Examples

library tspdlib;

// Load date file
y = loadd(getGAUSSHome() $+ "pkgs/tspdlib/examples/ts_examples.csv", "Y");

// No deterministic component
model = 0;

// Call ADF test
{ ADFtau, ADFp, cvADF } = ADF(y, model);
