QSpecQuantity is an S4 class that provides a common interface to
objects that are of the functional form
\(f^{j_1, j_2}(\omega; x_1, x_2)\),
where \(j_1, j_2\) are indices denoting components of a time series
or process, \(\omega\) is a frequency parameter and
\(x_1, x_2\) are level parameters. For each combination of
parameters a complex number can be stored.
Examples for objects of this kind currently include the quantile (i. e.,
Laplace or copula) spectral
density kernel [cf. QuantileSD for an implementation], an
integrated version of the quantile spectral density kernels
[cf. IntegrQuantileSD for an implementation], and
estimators of it [cf. QuantilePG and SmoothedPG
for implementations].
valuesThe array holding the values \(f^{j_1, j_2}(\omega; x_1, x_2)\).
frequenciesThe frequencies \(\omega\) for which the values are available.
levelsA list of vectors containing the levels \(x_i\) serving as argument for the estimator.
