IRAnalysis.errband_mc(orth=False, svar=False, repl=1000, signif=0.05, rng=None, burn=100)[source]#

IRF Monte Carlo integrated error bands

Parameters:
orthbool, optional

Compute orthogonalized impulse responses. The default is False.

svarbool, optional

Compute structural impulse responses. The default is False.

replint, optional

Number of MC replications. The default is 1000.

signiffloat, optional

Significance level for the confidence interval, between 0 and 1. The default is 0.05, giving a 95% confidence interval.

rngint, array_like of int, numpy.random.Generator, or numpy.random.RandomState, optional

Source of random numbers used for the Monte Carlo replications. If rng is None, a new Generator is created using fresh entropy from the operating system. If rng is an int, a new RandomState instance is created, seeded with rng; this integer-seeding behavior is deprecated and will change to creating a Generator in a future release. If rng is already a Generator or RandomState instance, that instance is used.

seedint, array_like of int, numpy.random.Generator, or numpy.random.RandomState, optional

Deprecated since version 0.15: seed has been deprecated. In-line with SPEC-007, use rng for passing a random number generator or seed.

burnint, optional

Number of initial simulated obs to discard. The default is 100.

Returns:
ErrorBand

A result object with fields lower and upper.
