CALL KALCVF
(pred, vpred, filt, vfilt, data, lead, a, f, b, h, var <*>, z0 <*>, vz0 ) ;
The KALCVF subroutine computes the one-step prediction and the filtered estimate
, in addition to their covariance matrices. The call uses forward recursions, and you can also use it to obtain
-step estimates.
The input arguments to the KALCVF subroutine are as follows:
is a matrix that contains data
.
is the number of steps to forecast after the end of the data.
is an vector for a time-invariant input vector in the transition equation, or a
vector that contains input vectors in the transition equation.
is an matrix for a time-invariant transition matrix in the transition equation, or a
matrix that contains transition matrices in the transition equation.
is an vector for a time-invariant input vector in the measurement equation, or a
vector that contains input vectors in the measurement equation.
is an matrix for a time-invariant measurement matrix in the measurement equation, or a
matrix that contains measurement matrices in the measurement equation.
is an matrix for a time-invariant variance matrix for the error in the transition equation and the error in the measurement equation,
or a
matrix that contains variance matrices for the error in the transition equation and the error in the measurement equation—that
is,
.
is an optional initial state vector
.
is an optional covariance matrix of an initial state vector
.
The KALCVF call returns the following values:
is a matrix that contains one-step predicted state vectors
.
is a matrix that contains mean square errors of predicted state vectors
.
is a matrix that contains filtered state vectors
.
is a matrix that contains mean square errors of filtered state vectors
.
The KALCVF call computes the conditional expectation of the state vector given the observations, assuming that the mean and the variance of the initial state vector are known. The filtered value
is the conditional expectation of the state vector
given the observations up to time
. For
-step forecasting where
, the conditional expectation at time
is computed given observations up to
. For notation,
and
are variances of
and
, respectively, and
is a covariance of
and
, and
stands for the generalized inverse of
. The filtered value and its covariance matrix are denoted
and
, respectively. For
,
and
stand for the
-step forecast of
and its mean square error. The Kalman filtering algorithm for one-step prediction and filtering is given as follows:

The KALCVF call accepts missing values in observations. If there is a missing observation, the filtered state vector for the missing observation is given by the one-step forecast.
The following program gives an example of the KALCVF call:
q = 2; p = 2; n = 10; lead = 3; total = n + lead; seed = 25735; x = round(10*normal(j(n, p, seed)))/10; f = round(10*normal(j(q*total, q, seed)))/10; a = round(10*normal(j(total*q, 1, seed)))/10; h = round(10*normal(j(p*total, q, seed)))/10; b = round(10*normal(j(p*total, 1, seed)))/10; do i = 1 to total; temp = round(10*normal(j(p+q, p+q, seed)))/10; var = var//(temp*temp`); end; call kalcvf(pred, vpred, filt, vfilt, x, lead, a, f, b, h, var); /* default initial state and covariance */ call kalcvs(sm, vsm, x, a, f, b, h, var, pred, vpred); print sm[format=9.4] vsm[format=9.4];
