LongRunCovMatrix: Long Run Covariance Matrix Estimation for Multivariate Time Series
Description
This function estimates the long run covariance matrix of a given multivariate data sample.
Usage
LongRunCovMatrix(mdobj, h = 0, kern_type = "bartlett")
Arguments
mdobj
A multivariate data object
h
The bandwidth parameter. It is strictly non-zero. Choosing the bandwidth parameter to be zero is identical
to estimating covariance matrix assuming iid data.
kern_type
Kernel function to be used for the estimation of the long run covariance
matrix. The choices are c("BT", "PR", "SP", "FT") which are respectively, bartlett, parzen, simple and flat-top kernels.
By default the function uses a "barlett" kernel.
