Bootstrap: Generates the bootstrap-related outputs

Description

Generates the bootstrap-related outputs

Usage

Bootstrap(
  ModelType,
  ModelParaPE,
  NumOutPE,
  Economies,
  InputsForOutputs,
  FactorLabels,
  JLLlist = NULL,
  GVARlist = NULL,
  WishBC = 0,
  BRWlist = NULL
)

Value

List containing the following elements:

• List of model parameters for each draw

• List of numerical outputs (IRFs, GIRFs, FEVDs, GFEVDs and Term Premia) for each draw

• Confidence bounds for the chosen level of significance

Arguments

ModelType

A character vector indicating the model type to be estimated.

ModelParaPE

A list containing the point estimates of the model parameters. For details, refer to the outputs from the Optimization function.

NumOutPE

The point estimate derived from numerical outputs. See the outputs from the NumOutputs function for further information.

Economies

A character vector containing the names of the economies included in the system.

InputsForOutputs

A list containing the necessary inputs for generating IRFs, GIRFs, FEVDs, GFEVDs and Term Premia.

FactorLabels

A list of character vectors with labels for all variables in the model.

JLLlist

List. Inputs for JLL model estimation (see JLL function). Default is NULL.

GVARlist

List. Inputs for GVAR model estimation (see GVAR function). Default is NULL.

WishBC

Whether to estimate the physical parameter model with bias correction, based on the method by Bauer, Rudebusch and Wu (2012) (see Bias_Correc_VAR function). Default is set to 0.

BRWlist

List of necessary inputs for performing the bias-corrected estimation (see Bias_Correc_VAR function).
