Hello,

You have three parameters, two sar and one intercept.

arima(x, order=c(0,0,0), seasonal=list(order=c(2,0,0), period=4),
        transform.pars = FALSE, fixed = c(0.54, 0.5, rep(NA, 1)))


I also believe that the answer you got from Rolf is more to the point.
Try something along the lines he suggested.

Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Thank you for your tips.

I tried the code that you suggested, but there is a problem with the length of 
fixed.
In the help page it is specified that the length of fixed must be total number 
of parameters.
But in case of a Seasonal AR(2) model, which is the number of the parameters? I 
tried with length 4, 6, 8 but there always is the same error.
And moreover, which is the order of its elements.
Have you got some final hints about it?

Thank you for your help

Best regards,

Stefano Sofia

Oggetto: Re: [R] Apply a Seasonal ARMA process

Hello,

I think the correct way would be

arima(my_ts, order=c(0,0,0), seasonal=list(order=c(2,0,0), period=4),
transform.pars = FALSE, fixed = c(0.54, 0.5))

Take a look at the help page for ?arima. You will see the description of
argument 'fixed'. You will also see that 'n' is not an argument.

Hope this helps,

Dear R users,
I have a seasonal time series of period 4 (my_ts).
I would like to apply to my_ts a Seasonal ARMA(2,0) process (only the seasonal 
part), with Seasonal AR coefficients respectively 0.54 and 0.5.
I tried to use the arima command from the stats package, but this code is not 
correct:

arima(my_ts, order=c(0,0,0), seasonal=list(order=c(2,0,0), sar=c(0.54, 0.5), 
period=4), n=220)

The error is:
"Error in optim(init[mask], armaCSS, method = optim.method, hessian = FALSE: initial 
value in 'vmmin' not finite".

I am not even sure of the syntax about sar=c(0.54, 0.5).
I looked for this topic in the R archive, but I have not been able to find an 
example or a useful hint.
Could you please help me? Does arima handle seasonal ARMA processes? If yes, 
how? Is there a better specific package for that?

Thank you for your help
Stefano Sofia
