mADCF: Auto-Distance Correlation Matrix

Description

Computes the auto-distance correlation matrix of a multivariate time series.

Usage

mADCF(x, lags, unbiased = FALSE, output = TRUE)

Value

If lags is a single number then the function will return a matrix. If lags is a vector of many values the function will return an array. For either case, the matrix (matrices) will contain either the biased estimators of the pairwise auto-distance correlation functions or the bias-corrected estimators of squared pairwise auto-distance correlation functions at lag, \(j\), determined by the argument lags.

Arguments

x

Multivariate time series.

lags

The lag order at which to calculate the mADCF. No default is given. This can be a single number or a vector of numbers with different lag orders.

unbiased

A logical value. If unbiased = TRUE, the individual elements of auto-distance correlation matrix correspond to the bias-corrected estimators of squared auto-distance correlation functions. Default value is FALSE.

output

A logical value. If output=FALSE, no output is given. Default value is TRUE.

Details

If \(\textbf{X}_t=(X_{t;1}, \dots, X_{t;d})'\) is a multivariate time series of dimension \(d\), then mADCF computes the sample auto-distance correlation matrix, \(\hat{R}(\cdot)\), of \(\textbf{X}_t\). It is defined by $$ \hat{R}(j) = [\hat{R}_{rm}(j)]_{r,m=1}^d, \quad j=0, \pm 1, \pm 2, \dots, $$

where \(\hat{R}_{rm}(j)\) is the biased estimator of the so-called pairwise auto-distance correlation function between \(X_{t;r}\) and \(X_{t+j;m}\) given by the positive square root of $$ \hat{R}_{rm}^2(j) = \frac{\hat{V}_{rm}^2(j)}{\hat{V}_{rr}(0)\hat{V}_{mm}(0)} $$ for \(\hat{V}_{rr}(0)\hat{V}_{mm}(0) \neq 0\) and zero otherwise.

\(\hat{V}_{rm}(j)\) is the \((r,m)\) element of the corresponding mADCV matrix at lag \(j\). Formal definition and more details can be found in Fokianos and Pitsillou (2017).

If unbiased = TRUE, mADCF returns a matrix that contains the bias-corrected estimators of squared pairwise auto-distance correlation functions.
