Locally Stationary Whittle log-likelihood Function

This function computes Whittle estimator for LS-ARMA and LS-ARFIMA models, in data with mean zero. If mean is not zero, then it is subtracted to data.

LS.whittle.loglik(
  x,
  series,
  order = c(p = 0, q = 0),
  ar.order = NULL,
  ma.order = NULL,
  sd.order = NULL,
  d.order = NULL,
  include.d = FALSE,
  N = NULL,
  S = NULL,
  include.taper = TRUE
)

Arguments

x: (type: numeric) parameter vector.
series: (type: numeric) univariate time series.
order: (type: numeric) vector corresponding to ARMA model entered.
ar.order: (type: numeric) AR polimonial order.
ma.order: (type: numeric) MA polimonial order.
sd.order: (type: numeric) polinomial order noise scale factor.
d.order: (type: numeric) d polinomial order, where d is the ARFIMA parameter.
include.d: (type: numeric) logical argument for ARFIMA models. If include.d=FALSE then the model is an ARMA process.
N: (type: numeric) value corresponding to the length of the window to compute periodogram. If N=NULL then the function will use $N = \textrm{trunc}(n^{0.8})$ , see Dahlhaus (1998) where $n$ is the length of the y vector.
S: (type: numeric) value corresponding to the lag with which will go taking the blocks or windows.
include.taper: (type: logical) logical argument that by default is TRUE. See periodogram.

Details

The estimation of the time-varying parameters can be carried out by means of the Whittle log-likelihood function proposed by Dahlhaus (1997), $L_n(\theta) = \frac{1}{4\pi}\frac{1}{M} \int_{-\pi}^{\pi} \bigg\{log f_{\theta}(u_j,\lambda) + \frac{I_N(u_j, \lambda)}{f_{\theta}(u_j,\lambda)}\bigg\}\,d\lambda$ where $M$ is the number of blocks, $N$ the length of the series per block, $n =S(M-1)+N$ , $S$ is the shift from block to block, $u_j =t_j/n$ , $t_j =S(j-1)+N/2$ , $j =1,\ldots,M$ and $\lambda$ the Fourier frequencies in the block ( $2\,\pi\,k/N$ , $k = 1,\ldots, N$ ).
