Examines the model's parameters for stability constraints (e.g. stationary, positive variance, etc.).
Syntax
EGARCH_CHECK(mean, alphas, gammas, betas, innovation, v)
- mean
- is the E-GARCH model mean (i.e. mu).
- alphas
- are the parameters of the ARCH(p) component model (starting with the lowest lag).
- gammas
- are the leverage parameters (starting with the lowest lag).
- betas
- are the parameters of the GARCH(q) component model (starting with the lowest lag).
- innovation
- is the probability distribution model for the innovations/residuals (1=Gaussian (default), 2=t-Distribution, 3=GED).
value Description 1 Gaussian or Normal Distribution (default) 2 Student's t-Distribution 3 Generalized Error Distribution (GED) - v
- is the shape parameter (or degrees of freedom) of the innovations/residuals probability distribution function.
Remarks
- The underlying model is described here.
- The time series is homogeneous or equally spaced.
- The number of gamma-coefficients must match the number of alpha-coefficients.
- The number of parameters in the input argument - alpha - determines the order of the ARCH component model.
- The number of parameters in the input argument - beta - determines the order of the GARCH component model.
- EGARCH_CHECK examines the model's coefficients for:
- Coefficients are all positive
