function nls(eqname, params, data, range, optimizer, varargin)
|
|
|
|
% Estimates the parameters of a PAC equation by Nonlinear Least Squares.
|
|
%
|
|
% INPUTS
|
|
% - eqname [string] Name of the pac equation.
|
|
% - params [struct] Describes the parameters to be estimated.
|
|
% - data [dseries] Database for the estimation
|
|
% - range [dates] Range of dates for the estimation.
|
|
% - optimizer [string] Set the optimization algorithm. Possible values
|
|
% are 'fmincon', 'fminunc', 'csminwel',
|
|
% 'fminsearch', 'simplex' and
|
|
% 'annealing'. Default is 'csminwel'.
|
|
% - varargin List of key/value pairs, each key must be a
|
|
% string and values can be strings or real numbers.
|
|
%
|
|
% OUTPUTS
|
|
% - none
|
|
%
|
|
% REMARKS
|
|
% [1] The estimation results are printed in the command line window, and the
|
|
% parameters are updated accordingly in M_.params.
|
|
% [2] The second input is a structure. Each fieldname corresponds to the
|
|
% name of an estimated parameter, the value of the field is the initial
|
|
% guess used for the estimation (by NLS).
|
|
% [3] The third input is a dseries object which must at least contain all
|
|
% the variables appearing in the estimated equation. The residual of the
|
|
% equation must have NaN values in the object.
|
|
% [4] It is assumed that the residual is additive.
|
|
% [5] If the used optimization routines handles inequalities over the
|
|
% estimated parameters, we impose the positivity of the error correction parameter.
|
|
%
|
|
% EXAMPLE
|
|
%
|
|
% pac.estimate.nls('zpac', eparams, dbase, dates('2003Q1'):dates('2016Q3'),'fminunc', 'MaxIter', 50);
|
|
%
|
|
% where zpac is the name of the PAC equation, eparams is a structure
|
|
% containing the guess values for the estimated parameters (in each field),
|
|
% dbase is a dseries object containing the data,
|
|
% dates('2003Q1'):dates('2016Q3') is the range of the sample used for
|
|
% estimation, 'fminunc' is the name of the optimization algorithm (this one
|
|
% is available only if the matylab optimization toolbox is installed), the
|
|
% remaining inputs are the options (key/value) passed to the optimizers.
