The estimation options follow advances in the econometric literature: either running the Kalman Filter and Smoother once with initial values from PCA - 2S estimation as in Doz, Giannone and Reichlin (2011) - or via iterated Kalman Filtering and Smoothing until EM convergence - following Doz, Giannone and Reichlin (2012) - or using the adapted EM algorithm of Banbura and Modugno (2014) , allowing arbitrary patterns of missing data. The implementation makes heavy use of the ''Armadillo'' ''C++'' library and the ''collapse'' package, providing for particularly speedy estimation. A comprehensive set of methods supports interpretation and visualization of the model as well as forecasting. Information criteria to choose the number of factors are also provided - following Bai and Ng (2002) .' authors: - family-names: Krantz given-names: Sebastian email: sebastian.krantz@graduateinstitute.ch - family-names: Bagdziunas given-names: Rytis repository: https://sebkrantz.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/SebKrantz/dfms commit: 7692ae0d78a83544fbd25f93eb0d5c923602fe99 url: https://sebkrantz.github.io/dfms/ contact: - family-names: Krantz given-names: Sebastian email: sebastian.krantz@graduateinstitute.ch
