Additive nonlinear autoregressive model

Description

Additive nonlinear autoregressive model.

Usage

aar(x, m, d=1, steps=d, series)

Arguments

x time series
m, d, steps embedding dimension, time delay, forecasting steps
series time series name (optional)

Details

Nonparametric additive autoregressive model of the form:

x[t+steps] = mu + sum_j s_j(x[t-(j-1)d])

where s_j are nonparametric univariate functions of lagged time series values. They are represented by cubic regression splines. s_j are estimated together with their level of smoothing using routines in the mgcv package (see references).

Value

An object of class nlar, subclass aar, i.e. a list with mostly internal structures for the fitted gam object.
