spate (version 1.7.5)

loglike: Log-likelihood of the hyperparameters.

Description

Evaluates the log-likelihood of the hyperparameters given the data (Gaussian case) or given the latent variable w (in the Tobit case).

Usage

loglike(par=NULL,w=NULL,wFT=NULL,x=NULL,spec=NULL,Gvec=NULL,tau2=NULL,n,T,
         NF=n*n,indCos=(1:((n*n-4)/2)*2+3),ns=4,nu=1,dt=1,logScale=FALSE,
         logInd=c(1,2,3,4,5,9),negative=FALSE)

Value

Value of the log-likelihood evaluated at 'par'.

Arguments

par

Vector of parameters for the SPDE in the following order: rho_0, sigma^2, zeta, rho_1, gamma, alpha, mu_x, mu_y, tau^2, regression coefficients beta. rho_0 and sigma^2 are the range and marginal variance of the Whittle covariance funtion for the innovation term epsilon. zeta is the damping parameter. rho_1, gamma, and alpha parametrize the diffusion matrix with rho_1 being a range parameter, gamma and alpha determining the amount and the direction, respectively, of anisotropy. mu_x and mu_y are the two components of the drift vector. tau^2 denotes the variance of nugget effect or measurment error. Subsequently in par are the regression coefficients beta, if there are covariates.

w

Matrix of size T x N, where T and N denote the number of points in time and space. In the case of a Gaussian data model, w contains the observed values, with the Tobit model, w denotes the latent normal variable.

wFT

A vector with the (discrete) Fourier transform of the observed or latent w, depending on which data model is used. Note that, in contrast to w, this needs to be in stacked vector format. Use 'TSmat.to.vect'.

x

Covariates in an array of dimensions p x T X N, where p denotes the number of covariates, T the number of time points, and n the number of spatial points.

spec

A vector containing the spectrum of the innovation term epsilon. If 'spec' is not given, it is constructed based on 'par'.

Gvec

The propagator matrix G in vector format obtained from 'get.G.vec'. If 'Gvec' is not given, it is constructed based on 'par'.

tau2

Measurement error variance tau2. If 'NULL'; tau2=par[9].

n

Number of grid points on each axis. n x n is the total number of spatial points.

T

Number of points in time.

NF

Number of Fourier functions.

indCos

Vector of integers indicating the position of wavenumbers of cosine-only terms.

ns

Number of real Fourier functions that have only a cosine and no sine term. 'ns' is maximal 4.

nu

Smoothness parameter of the Matern covariance function for the innovations. By default this equals 1 corresponding to the Whittle covariance function.

dt

Temporal lag between two time points. By default, this equals 1.

logScale

logical; if 'TRUE' the parameters specified in 'logInd' are on the logarithmic scale. This is used for constraining parameters to be positive.

logInd

Vector of integers indicating which parameters are on the log-scale.

negative

logical; if 'TRUE' the negative log-likelihood is returned otherwise the positive log-likelihood is returned.

Examples

Run this code
n <- 20
T <- 20
##Specify hyper-parameters
par <- c(rho0=0.1,sigma2=0.2,zeta=0.5,rho1=0.1,gamma=2,alpha=pi/4,muX=0.2,muY=-0.2,tau2=0.01)
##Simulate data
spateSim <- spate.sim(par=par,n=n,T=T,seed=4)
w <- spateSim$w

##Initial values for optim. This takes a couple of seconds.
parI <- c(rho0=0.2,sigma2=0.1,zeta=0.25,rho1=0.01,gamma=1,alpha=0.3,muX=0,muY=0,tau2=0.005)
logInd=c(1,2,3,4,5,9)
##Transform to log-scale
parI[logInd] <- log(parI[logInd])

##Fourier transform needs to be done only once
wFT <- real.fft.TS(w,n=n,T=T)
##ML estimation using optim, takes a couple of seconds
##Load the precomputed object a line below to save time
##spateMLE <- optim(par=parI,loglike,control=list(trace=TRUE,maxit=1000),wFT=wFT,method="L-BFGS-B",
##     lower=c(-10,-10,-10,-10,-10,0,-0.5,-0.5,-10),
##     upper=c(10,10,10,10,10,pi/2,0.5,0.5,10),negative=TRUE,
##     logScale=TRUE,hessian=TRUE,n=n,T=T)
