Package: starvars Type: Package Title: Vector Logistic Smooth Transition Models Estimation and Prediction Version: 1.1.10 Authors@R: c( person("Andrea", "Bucci", email = "andrea.bucci@unich.it", role = c("aut", "cre", "cph")), person("Giulio", "Palomba", role = "aut"), person("Eduardo", "Rossi", role = "aut"), person("Andrea", "Faragalli", role = "ctb") ) Description: Allows the user to estimate a vector logistic smooth transition autoregressive model via maximum log-likelihood or nonlinear least squares. It further permits to test for linearity in the multivariate framework against a vector logistic smooth transition autoregressive model with a single transition variable. The estimation method is discussed in Terasvirta and Yang (2014, ). Also, realized covariances can be constructed from stock market prices or returns, as explained in Andersen et al. (2001, ).
