| bds.test {tseries} | R Documentation |
Computes and prints the BDS test statistic for the null that x is a series
of i.i.d. random variables.
bds.test (x, m = 2, eps = seq(0.5*sd(x),2*sd(x),length=4), trace =
FALSE)
print (object, digits = 4)
x |
a numeric vector or time series. |
m |
an integer indicating that the BDS test statistic is computed for
embedding dimensions 2, ..., m. |
eps |
a numeric vector of epsilon values for close points. The
BDS test is computed for each element of eps. It
should be set in terms of the standard deviation of x. |
trace |
a logical indicating whether some informational output is traced. |
object |
a list with class "bdstest". |
digits |
the number of digits to format real numbers. |
This test examines the ``spatial dependence''
of the observed series. To do this, the series is embedded in
m-space and the dependence of x is examined by
counting ``near'' points. Points for which the distance is less than
eps are called ``near''. The BDS test statistic is asymptotically
standard Normal.
Missing values are not allowed.
A list with class "bdstest" containing the following components:
statistic |
the values of the test statistic. |
p.value |
the p-values of the test. |
method |
a character string indicating what type of test was performed. |
parameter |
a list with the components m and eps
containing the embedding dimensions and epsilon values for which the
statistic is computed. |
data.name |
a character string giving the name of the data. |
