fourier_kss_bootstrap#

Purpose#

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

Format#

{ test_boot, cv_boot } = Fourier_kss_bootstrap(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.
Nboot – Optional, number of bootstrap iterations. Default = 1000.

Returns:

test_boot (Scalar) – Bootstrapped test statistic.
cv_boot (Scalar) – Bootstrapped 1%, 5%, and 10% critical values.
f (Scalar) – Chosen number of single frequency.

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
{ test_boot, cv_boot } = Fourier_KSS_bootstrap(y, model);
