Estimate models and forecast at given horizons

Description

Estimate models and forecast at given horizons.

Usage

    estimators.horizon.forecasts(data, 
                       estimation.sample=.5, horizons=1:12,quiet=F,
                       estimation.methods=NULL)

Arguments

data A TSdata object.
estimation.methods A list of estimation methods to use. (See estimate.models.)
estimation.sample The portion of the sample to use for estimation.
horizons The horizons for which forecasts are to be produced.
quiet If true no estimation information is printed.

Details

estimation.sample indicates the part of the data to use for estimation. If estimation.sample is less than or equal 1.0 it is used to indicate the portion of points to use for estimation. Otherwise it should be an integer and is used to indicate the number of points from the beginning of the sample to use for estimation.

Value

A list of forecasts at different horizons as returned by horizon.forecasts.
