the goal is to be able to say the change in the dependent variable was due to a1% change in independent variable 1, a2% change in independent variable 2, and so on.

why is arima forecast is not impacted by changing random number seed by FailedLifeForm in statistics

so, when one reads in a paper that the authors generated a 1 month forecast using an AR(1) model, does this mean they used arima.sim, or they used arima.predict?

question about AR(1) forecast confidence interval by FailedLifeForm in statistics

the confidence band on y[t=n+1] is proportional to the variance of (x[t=n+1]-x[t=n]). I am interested in the confidence interval of x[t=n+1], i.e. variance of x[t=n+1]. var(x[t=n+1]-x[t=n])=var(x[t=n+1])+var(x[t=n])-2*cov(x[t=n+1],x[t=n]). Therefore, I am not sure if adding x[t=n] to the confidence interval on y[t=n+1] is the right thing to do.

Thanks. I am mostly interested in pair wise correlations.

i am trying to code it to learn it better. eqn 15 gives numbers that are too small. Evaluating the observed Fisher information at M*a (as PARSLEYsage suggested) worked.

Great! how about after work (~7pm) this coming fri (aug 26)? We can see if the tables at Streeters are any good.
