[R] did my searching but still couldn't find anything for bayesian dlm

2006-10-31 Thread Leeds, Mark \(IED\)
I familarized myelf with kalmanlike and structts which are approaches
for building and estimating ( and forecasting ) state space models ( or
the equivalent arima models ).
back in 2003, gavin simpson wrote an email describing the west and
harrison apprach to estimate state space models and asked if anything
was out there for
using that approach.  the goals of this approach are the same  as kalman
like and structts but priors
are put on the variances and a bayesian approach is used to estimate the
next "state". in this manner, , all numerical optimization is avoided (
but obviously the results are different also so it's not necessarily a
"better" approach. just different ).
 
i'm dealing with minute by minute data so , for me, it's essential to
avoid computing likelihoods over and over. is it possible, that , since
gavin's email, the west and harrison approach has been built in one of
the many packages out there. i looked really hard but i couldn't find
it.
my guess is that the answer is no. thanks for any input.

Not sure how far the Bayesian bit has advanced, but DLMs are now
becoming part of R in add-on packages sspir and dlm, thanks to a number
of people, Claus Dethlefsen and Søren Lundbye-Christensen (sspir), and
Giovanni Petris (dlm).

IIRC, I saw some of Giovanni's materials from his website that contains
information about doing Bayesian analysis with his dlm package, but I
don't have the link on my home PC to confirm this.

Whether these will be suitable for your use, I don't know.

All the best,
