You forgot to RTFM. From ?arima Different definitions of ARMA models have different signs for the AR and/or MA coefficients. The definition used here has 'X[t] = a[1]X[t-1] + ... + a[p]X[t-p] + e[t] + b[1]e[t-1] + ... + b[q]e[t-q]' and so the MA coefficients differ in sign

[R] AR(2) coefficient interpretation

2008-12-22 Thread Stephen Oman
I am a beginner in using R and I need help in the interpretation of AR result by R. I used 12 observations for my AR(2) model and it turned out the intercept showed 5.23 while first and second AR coefficients showed 0.40 and 0.46. It is because my raw data are in million so it seems the intercept
