WebNov 28, 2000 · In this paper we propose a dynamic hierarchical model formulation in an environment where the observations are matrix normal random variables. First, we present the model assuming known variance–covariance matrices, except for a common scale factor matrix. With such an assumption one can perform conjugate analysis of the …

An Introduction to Dynamic Factor Models · r-econometrics

WebAbstract. This article surveys work on a class of models, dynamic factor models (DFMs), that has received considerable attention in the past decade because of their ability to model simultaneously and consistently data sets in which the number of series exceeds the number of time series observations. The aim of this survey is to describe the ... WebMar 24, 2016 · The CEI growth was the forecast indicator and 2 factors – domestic and foreign – were used as predictors. The factors were evaluated by combining the selected indicators from domestic and supranational data in a structural way and building a dynamic hierarchical factor model following Moench, Ng, and Potter . WebRes = dfm (X,X_pred,m,p,frq,isdiff,blocks, threshold, ar_errors, varnames) Main function for estimating dynamic factor models. The first six arguments are required; the remaining four are optional.
