Good morning everyone, I use for the first time the package fSeries and i try to run the example given by Diethelm Würtz. But when i run its example which is the following # # Example: # Model a GARCH time series process # # Description: # PART I: Estimate GARCH models of the following type ARCH(2) # and GARCH(1,1) with normal conditional distribution functions. # PART II: Simulate GARCH models of the following type, ARCH(2) # and GARCH(1,1), # with normal conditional distribution functions. # # Author: # (C) 2002, Diethelm Wuertz, GPL #
############################################################################ #### # PART I: Estimation: # Settings: set.seed(547) # Bollerslev's GARCH(1,1) with normal innovations: model = list(omega = 1e-6, alpha = 0.1, beta = 0.8, mu = 0) x = garchSim(model, n = 1000) fit = garchFit(as.numeric(x), order = c(1, 1)) print(fit) # Summary and Diagnostic Analysis: summary(fit) # Plot Results: par(mfrow = c(2, 2)) plot(fit) ### Results of the estimations are false. Call: garchFit(x = as.numeric(x), order = c(1, 1)) Coefficient(s): omega a1 b1 8.564e-07 5.000e-02 5.000e-02 To compare with : omega = 1e-6, alpha = 0.1, beta = 0.8. Do you have some information about this? Can I give some initials values to start the estimations? Can I use different innovation process like student-t and GED Thanks for your answers Cyril [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
