Hi,

R version 3.0.0 (2013-04-03)
Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)

I am experiencing following problem. I am trying to fit arima(2,0,4) model, and optim complaint that armafn provides it with infinite value. I found that it is because sumlog (res[2L]) (see stats/R/arima.R line 64) is NaN, because of gain in function ARIMA_Like (see stats/src/arima.c line 674) becomes negative and log() of this is calculated.

However, writing down expression for log-likelihood for ARIMA I don't see any poles in this expression, so I would rather consider that something wrong with evaluation here.

How to find, what is wrong here?


p.s. Does anybody know what the following code is intended to do? (ARIMA_Like stats/src/arima.c)

            if(gain < 1e4) {
                nu++;
                ssq += resid * resid / gain;
                sumlog += log(gain);
            }

I mean there is some hard coded magic value 1e4...
