fourier_kss¶

Purpose¶

Computes the KSS unit root test with flexible Fourier form structural breaks.

Format¶

{ FKSS, f, p } = Fourier_kss(y, model, test[, pmax, fmax, ic])¶

Parameters:

y (Nx1 matrix) – Dependent variable.
model (Scalar) –
Model to be implemented.

1 Constant

2 Constant and trend
test (String) – Test to be conducted. Options are “FADF” or “FKSS”.
pmax (Scalar) – Optional, maximum number of lags for \(\Delta y\); 0=no lag. Default = 8.
fmax (Scalar) – Optional, maximum number of single Fourier frequency (upper bound is 5). Default = 5.
ic (Scalar) –
Optional, the information criterion used for choosing lags. Default = 3.

1 Akaike.

2 Schwarz.

3 t-stat significance.

Returns:

Ftau (Scalar) – F-tau statistic,
f (Scalar) – Chosen number of single frequency.
p (Scalar) – number of lags selected by chosen information criterion

Examples¶

library tspdlib;

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

// With constant
model = 1;

// Call test
{ Ftau, f, p } = Fourier_KSS(y, model);
