Hi to everyone,
I am starting to work with a model that is not familiar to me. The model would be like that: y = . - a*max(Q(i) - Q(0), 0) + . where Q(i) is the accumulated effect of a variable at time i and Q(0) a threshold above it there is effect on y. The value of Q(i) could be estimated as: Q(i+1) = Q(i) + b*max(s(i) - s(0), 0) + c*min(s(i) - s(0), 0) + . Where s would be the effect that produces the accumulate effect of Q, s(i) would be this effect at time i and s(0) another threshold above it the accumulative effect is produced. The coefficient b would be the rate of accumulation and c the rate of decay. What kind of model is it? Is it somewhat similar to time series? I appreciate your help.
