Weighted Portmanteau Test procedures for Time Series Goodness-of-fit

Description

Two functions that implement the Weighted Portmanteau Statistics from Fisher and Gallagher (2012). The first is essentially a weighted Ljung-Box type test that can be used for fitted ARMA processes or detecting non-linear effects. The second function can be utilized to check the adequacy of a fitted ARCH process. Both are written for backward compatibility.

The two functions, Weighted.Box.test() and Weighted.LM.test(), can be used in a similiar to the Box.test() function.

Weighted Portmanteau Test

Description

Weighted portmanteau tests for testing the null hypothesis of adequate ARMA fit and/or for detecting nonlinear processes. Written in the style of Box.test() and is capable of performing the traditional Box Pierce (1970), Ljung Box (1978) or Monti (1994) tests.

Usage

Weighted.Box.test(x, lag = 1, 
                 type = c("Box-Pierce", "Ljung-Box", "Monti"),
                 fitdf = 0, sqrd.res = FALSE,
                 log.sqrd.res = FALSE, abs.res = FALSE,
                 weighted = TRUE)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector or univariate time series, or residuals of a fitted time series

lag

the statistic will be based on lag autocorrelation coefficients. lag=1 by default

type

test to be performed, partial matching is used. "Box-Pierce" by default

fitdf

number of degrees of freedom to be subtracted if x is a series of residuals, set at 0 by default

sqrd.res

A flag, should the series/residuals be squared to detect for nonlinear effects?, FALSE by default

log.sqrd.res

A flag, should a log of the squared series/residuals be used to detect for nonlinear effects? FALSE by default

abs.res

A flag, should the absolute series or residuals be used to detect for nonlinear effects? FALSE by default

weighted

A flag determining if the weighting scheme should be utilized. TRUE by default. If set to FALSE, the traditional test is performed with no weights

Details

These test are traditionally applied to a time series for detecting autocorrelation, or to the residuals of an ARMA(p,q) fit to check the adequacy of that fit or to detect nonlinear (i.e. GARCH) effects in the time/residual series. The weighting scheme utilized here is asymptotically similar to the results found in Pena and Rodriguez (2002) and Mahdi and McLeod (2012) (i.e. the portes package).

Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

statistic

the value of the test statistic

parameter

The approximate shape and scale parameters for the weighted statistic or degrees of freedom of the chi-squared distribution if the weighted flag is set to false.

p.value

The p-value of the test

method

a character string indicating which type of test was performed.

data.name

a character string giving the name of the data

Note

Like the Box.test() function, missing values are not handled

Examples

set.seed(1)
x <- rnorm(100);
Weighted.Box.test(x, lag=10, type="Ljung");
Weighted.Box.test(x, lag=10, type="Ljung", sqrd.res=TRUE);

Weighted Portmanteau Test for Fitted ARCH process

Description

A weighted portmanteau test for testing the null hypothesis of adequately fitted ARCH process. This is essentially a weighted version of the statistic proposed by Li and Mak (1994)

Usage

Weighted.LM.test(x, h.t, lag = 1, 
                type = c("correlation", "partial"),
                fitdf = 1, weighted = TRUE)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector or univariate time series, or residuals of a fitted time series

h.t

a numeric vector of the conditional variances

lag

the statistic will be based on lag autocorrelation coefficients.

type

type of test to be performed, either based on the autocorrelations or partial-autocorrelations.

fitdf

the number of ARCH parameters fit to the model, default=1 since at least some ARCH model must be fit to find h.t

weighted

A flag determining if the weighting scheme should be utilized. TRUE by default, if FALSE, it performs the test from Li and Mak (1994)

Details

These test can be performed after fitting an ARCH process to a time series. The theoretical work was originally developed in Li and Mak (1994) and has recently been extended in Fisher and Gallagher (2012).

Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

statistic

the value of the test statistic

parameter

The approximate shape and scale parameters for the weighted statistic or degrees of freedom of the chi-squared distribution if the weighted flag is set to FALSE.

p.value

The p-value of the test

method

a character string indicating which type of test was performed.

data.name

a character string giving the name of the data

Note

Similiar to the Box.test() and Weighted.Box.test() functions
