Changes in version 0.2.3 (2023-08-21) - package documentation adjusted due to breaking change in roxygen2 7.0.0 Changes in version 0.2.2 (2023-07-16) - verbose arguments added to functions sparseVAR and sparseVARX - correction lambda grid to hvaralgorithms - removal SystemRequirements: C++11 Changes in version 0.2.1 (2021-08-09) - Dependency on Rcpp version >=1.0.7 added to the DESCRIPTION. Changes in version 0.2.0 (2021-06-24) - Important starting note: Please update all R packages on which bigtime depends upon installing bigtime from CRAN. We have been informed on errors occurring when using older versions of the Rcpp package on which bigtime depends. In version 0.2.1 of bigtime (currently only available on github), we have therefore added the dependency on Rcpp version >=1.0.7 - sparseVAR, sparseVARMA, sparseVARX are all more efficient and faster now - All estimation functions return corresponding S3 classes - fitted and residuals functions were implemented for VAR, VARMA, VARX - diagnostics_plot was implemented for VAR, VARMA, VARX - plot_cv was implemented; Allows to investigate the behavior in CV - sparseVAR, sparseVARMA and sparseVARX can now use information criteria to select the optimal penalization - simVAR allow for the simulation of VAR models using different sparsity patterns; utility functions summary and plot were also implemented for simulated VARs - Default selection procedure in sparseVAR, sparseVARMA and sparseVARX changed to "none". Will return a 3D array of estimations from this version on, unless a different selection procedure is chosen. WARNING: This can break old code! - recursiveforecast was implemented for VAR models. - is.stable was implemented for VAR models - in plot_cv, directforecast, and lagmatrix the model argument was removed. Functions know automatically what model was used. WARNING: This can break old code! - All model functions will give warnings if the given data is not standardized - added example data for VAR, VARMA, and VARX Changes in version 0.1.0 (2017-11-09) - First release on CRAN
