ralslm_breaks

Purpose

Computes the Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test with 1 or 2 breaks and the RALS technique for non-normal errors.

Format

{ LM_min, tb, p, cv_lm, RALS_lm, p2, cv_ralslm } = ralslm_breaks(y, model, nbreaks[, pmax, ic, trimm])
Parameters:
  • y (Nx1 matrix) – Time series data to be tested.
  • model (Scalar) –

    Model to be implemented.

    1 Level break (Meng, Im, Lee, & Tieslau (2014))
    2 Level and trend break (Meng, Lee, & Payne (2017))
  • 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.
  • trimm (Scalar) – Optional, trimming rate. Default = 0.10.
Nbreaks:

Number of breaks (1 or 2).

Returns:
  • LM_min (Scalar) – Minimum LM statistic without RALS terms.
  • tb (Vector) – Location of estimated breaks.
  • p (Scalar) – Optimal number of lags selected by determined information criterion.
  • cv_lm (Vector) – 1%, 5%, 10% critical values for LM test based on response surfaces.
  • RALS_lm (Scalar) – LM statistic based on RALS procedure and breaks.
  • rho2 (Scalar) – The estimated rho square.
  • cv_ralslm (Vector) – 1%, 5%, 10% critical values for RALS-LM test basen the estimated rho2.

Examples

library tspdlib;

// Load date file
y = loadd(getGAUSSHome() $+ "pkgs/tspdlib/examples/TSe.dat");

// With constant
model = 1;
{ LM_min, tb, p, cv_lm, RALS_lm, rho2, cv_ralslm } = RALSLM_breaks(y, model, nbreaks);
