Enhanced Seasonal Decomposition of Time Series by Loess

Decompose a time series into seasonal, trend, and remainder components using an implementation of Seasonal Decomposition of Time Series by Loess (STL) that provides several enhancements over the STL method in the stats package. These enhancements include handling missing values, providing higher order (quadratic) loess smoothing with automated parameter choices, frequency component smoothing beyond the seasonal and trend components, and some basic plot methods for diagnostics.

Nonlinear Time Series Models with Regime Switching

Implements nonlinear autoregressive (AR) time series models. For univariate series, a non-parametric approach is available through additive nonlinear AR. Parametric modeling and testing for regime switching dynamics is available when the transition is either direct (TAR: threshold AR) or smooth (STAR: smooth transition AR, LSTAR). For multivariate series, one can estimate a range of TVAR or threshold cointegration TVECM models with two or three regimes. Tests can be conducted for TVAR as well as for TVECM (Hansen and Seo 2002 and Seo 2006).

Distance Measures for Time Series Data

A set of commonly used distance measures and some additional functions which, although initially not designed for this purpose, can be used to measure the dissimilarity between time series. These measures can be used to perform clustering, classification or other data mining tasks which require the definition of a distance measure between time series. U. Mori, A. Mendiburu and J.A. Lozano (2016), .

Seismic Time Series Analysis Tools

Multiple interactive codes to view and analyze seismic data, via spectrum analysis, wavelet transforms, particle motion, hodograms. Includes general time-series tools, plotting, filtering, interactive display.

Locally Stationary Time Series

A set of functions that allow stationary analysis and locally stationary time series analysis.

Alternative Time Series Analysis

Contains some tools for testing, analyzing time series data and fitting popular time series models such as ARIMA, Moving Average and Holt Winters, etc. Most functions also provide nice and clear outputs like SAS does, such as identify, estimate and forecast, which are the same statements in PROC ARIMA in SAS.

Bayesian Structural Time Series

Time series regression using dynamic linear models fit using MCMC. See Scott and Varian (2014) , among many other sources.

Hierarchical and Grouped Time Series

Provides methods for analysing and forecasting hierarchical and grouped time series. The available forecast methods include bottom-up, top-down, optimal combination reconciliation (Hyndman et al. 2011) , and trace minimization reconciliation (Wickramasuriya et al. 2018) .

Companion to Tsay (2005) Analysis of Financial Time Series

R companion to Tsay (2005) Analysis of Financial Time Series, second edition (Wiley). Includes data sets, functions and script files required to work some of the examples. Version 0.3-x includes R objects for all data files used in the text and script files to recreate most of the analyses in chapters 1-3 and 9 plus parts of chapters 4 and 11.

All-Purpose Toolkit for Analyzing Multivariate Time Series (MTS) and Estimating Multivariate Volatility Models

Multivariate Time Series (MTS) is a general package for analyzing multivariate linear time series and estimating multivariate volatility models. It also handles factor models, constrained factor models, asymptotic principal component analysis commonly used in finance and econometrics, and principal volatility component analysis. (a) For the multivariate linear time series analysis, the package performs model specification, estimation, model checking, and prediction for many widely used models, including vector AR models, vector MA models, vector ARMA models, seasonal vector ARMA models, VAR models with exogenous variables, multivariate regression models with time series errors, augmented VAR models, and Error-correction VAR models for co-integrated time series. For model specification, the package performs structural specification to overcome the difficulties of identifiability of VARMA models. The methods used for structural specification include Kronecker indices and Scalar Component Models. (b) For multivariate volatility modeling, the MTS package handles several commonly used models, including multivariate exponentially weighted moving-average volatility, Cholesky decomposition volatility models, dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models, copula-based volatility models, and low-dimensional BEKK models. The package also considers multiple tests for conditional heteroscedasticity, including rank-based statistics. (c) Finally, the MTS package also performs forecasting using diffusion index , transfer function analysis, Bayesian estimation of VAR models, and multivariate time series analysis with missing values.Users can also use the package to simulate VARMA models, to compute impulse response functions of a fitted VARMA model, and to calculate theoretical cross-covariance matrices of a given VARMA model.
