1 Descriion of he MS-Regress R ackage (Rmerics) Auhor: Marcelo Perlin PhD Suden / ICMA Reading Universiy marceloerlin@gmail.com / m.erlin@icmacenre.ac.uk The urose of his documen is o show he general srucure of he ackage. The mahemaical noaion behind markov swiching models and Hamilon s filer is no going o be exosed here since i is no he oin. This definiely isn an inroducory documen on he markov swiching filer. My advice o hose who are jus saring ou is o firs read hrough he aers and books a he references and hen come back here o check he alicaion of he algorihm and he general comuaional srucure (inu/ouu) of he ackage. Also, be aware ha his ackage is a direc ranslaion of an exising Malab ackage. I is available a: h:// Broadly seaking here are no big differences in boh ackages bu, he Malab one has a coule of exra funcionaliies ha are no available in he R ackage (e.g. choice of mehod for sandard error calculaion, use of C++ version of Hamilon s filer). The Mean Equaion This aricular R ackage is quie flexible when i comes o he secificaion of markov swiching models. The cenral oin of his flexibiliy resides in he inu argumen S, which conrols for where o include markov swiching effec. For insance, if you have 2 exlanaory variables ( x 1, x 2 ) and if he inu argumen S, which is assed o he fiing funcion MS_Regress_Fi.R, is defined as S<-c(1,1), hen he model for he mean equaion is: S S S S - reresen he sae a ime, ha is, S = 1... K, where K is he number of saes S σ - model s sandard deviaion a sae S S β i - bea coefficien for exlanaory variable i a sae S where i goes from 1 o n ε - residue which follows a aricular disribuion (in his case Normal or Suden), wih zero mean and sd=var=1
2 Now, changing he inu argumen o S<-c(0,1), he model is: S S Noes ha, wih his change in he inu argumen S, only he second coefficien and he model s sandard deviaion are swiching according o he ransiion robabiliies, ha is, he firs coefficien ( β 1) doesn change saes. Also, you should noes ha he order in S is he same order as in he mean equaion. For insance, if S<-c(1 0), hen he mean equaion becomes: S S As an examle for he markov swiching fiing funcion, he following scri: library(fmarkovswiching) # Assuming library is insalled daa(inde) daa(de) # daa from ackage # daa from ackage S=c(1,0,0) # swiching in firs inde variable (firs column) disrib<-"normal" # Assumed disribuion for residue k<-2 # number of saes mymodel<-ms_regress_fi(de,inde,s,k,disrib) # calling Fi funcion reefers o he esimaion, based on Gaussian maximum likelihood, of he equaions: y y S= 1 S= 1 = β1 x1, + β 2x2, + β3x3, + σ ε if S = 1 S= 2 S= 2 = β1 x1, + β2x2, + β3x3, + σ ε if S = 2 wih: P=
3 as he ransiion marix, which conrols he robabiliy of a swich from sae j (column j) o sae i (row i). The sum of each column in P is equal o one, since hey reresen full robabiliies of he rocess for each sae. Noes ha hese oions o he fiing funcion are he same rovided a he examle scri Examle_MS_Regress_Fi.R (or alernaively wih he command examle(ms_regress_fi)). Anoher flexibiliy of he ackage is ha, since I wroe i for dealing wih a generic ye of regression, you can se any kind of exlanaory variable in he model as long as hey are observed (you have i available for he whole ime eriod sudied). This includes auoregressive comonens, consans or jus lain regression on oher variables. This means ha you can se u your own economeric model wihou changing any ar of he original code. Make sure you check he folder advscris in he roo direcory of fmarkovswiching. If you run he scri Examle_MS_Regress_Fi.R, his is he ouu (from rin()) you should be geing if everyhing is working. Noes ha I ve also added some clarificaions for he ouu (in red). ***** Numerical Oimizaion for MS Model Converged ***** Final log Likelihood: Number of arameers: 8 Disribuion Assumion -> Normal (maximum log likelihood found) (number of arameers in he model) (he disribuion assumion. You can change i a advo.disrib) ***** Final Parameers ***** ---> Non Swiching Parameers <--- (he arameers ha don swich (he 0 oions a inu S) Non Swiching Parameer a Inde Column 2 Value: (value of non swiching coefficien for inde column 2) Sd error: (0.00) (sandard error and value for coefficien) Non Swiching Parameer a Inde Column 3 Value: (value of non swiching coefficien for inde column 3) Sd error: (0.00) (sandard error and value for coefficien) ---> Swiching Parameers <--- (he arameers ha do swich (he 1 oions a inu S) Sae 1 Model Sandard Deviaion: (he model s sandard deviaion (he sigma) a sae 1) Sd Error: (0.00) (sandard error and value for corresonding sigma) Sae 2 Model Sandard Deviaion: (he model s sandard deviaion (he sigma) a sae 2) Sd Error: (0.00) (sandard error and value for corresonding sigma) Swiching Parameers for Inde Column 1 Sae 1 Value: (value of he swiching variable Inde column 1 a sae 1) Sd error: (0.74) (associaed sandard error and value) Sae 2 Value: (value of he swiching variable Inde column 1 a sae 2) Sd error: (0.65) (associaed sandard error and value)
4 ---> Transiion Probabiliies Marix <--- (he marix ha conrols he robabiliy of each regime swich, along wih sandard errors and -values) > Execed Duraion of Regimes <--- he execed duraion of each regime, calculaed as 1/(1- _ii) ) Execed duraion of Regime #1: ime eriods Execed duraion of Regime #2: ime eriods If his isn he ouu you re geing hen somehing is wrong wih your coy of R. Fell free o conac me by , including he error message you ge and he code (he main scri) you re running. Using i for your own Daa You robably wan o aly he ackage o you own ime series. This oic will se some advices of how you can do his if he model is no converging o a soluion. Try o make your exlained and exlanaory series o behave around zero. For insance, if he model is no converging, hen ry diminishing he mean from he original ime series. This will hel he oimizing funcion o find he soluion. As you robably know, his is a genle ransformaion. Always ry o esimae simle models. For insance, don ry o esimae any model wih k>3 and number of exlanaory variables higher han 4. The model s size (number of arameers) grows exonenially as n and k grows. For insance, if k=5 and n=4 (4 exlanaory variables), hen he model has 55 arameers o be esimaed from daa, which is definiely oo much for Rdonl2. Don ge me wrong, he ackage will ry o esimae i, bu he soluion is robably a local maximum and you can really rus he ouu you ge. 1 You re robably wondering why no sandard errors for he ransiion robabiliies. The reason is ha I coded he esimaion ar of he ackage as a linear inequaliy roblem. This reduces he roblem of finding he higher log likelihood condiional on k*k arameers of he ransiion marix o k*(k-1), ha is, you solve he oimizaion roblem wih less arameers. This means ha he values of he ransiion marix for he las row are no direcly esimaed as hey are jus one minus he sum of he oher robabiliies in he same column. Given ha, hose arameers are no included in he Hessian marix and herefore no sandard errors are available. For he ransiion robabiliies ouside he las row, he sandard errors are available, bu I choose no o rin hem for maer of elegancy
5 If afer hose ses, you re sill having roblems converging o a soluion, send a message o my (marceloerlin@gmail.com) wih a nice ersonal inroducion and an aached zi file conaining: 1) he scris you re running (he main.r file 2 ) 2) he error message (if here is one) (could be in.x or jus in he sace) 3) he full daase (exlained and exlanaory in.xls or.x). Hoefully he daa is already being loaded o R in your main scri and I ll ake a look over i. I ll ry o rely in less han 48 hours if he roblem is simle (usually is). Also, if you have any quesion regarding he ackage, feel free o conac me a my reviously cied . References ALEXANDER, C. (2008) Marke Risk Analysis: Pracical Financial Economerics Wiley.
