I am trying to use the "kernel" function. To understand how it works I tried out some of the examples. None of them works as shown in the following:
> kernel("daniell", 50) # Error in kernel("daniell", 50) : unused argument(s) (50) > kernel("daniell", 10) # Error in kernel("daniell", 10) : unused argument(s) (10) > kernel("daniell", c(3,3)) Error in kernel("daniell", c(3, 3)) : unused argument(s) (c(3, 3)) > kernel("fejer", 100, r=6) Error in kernel("fejer", 100, r = 6) : unused argument(s) (100, r = 6) > kernel("daniell", c(11,7,3) ) Error in kernel("daniell", c(11, 7, 3)) : unused argument(s) (c(11, 7, 3)) My goal is to detrend a time series affected by non-linear trend. I do not have clear ideas about the difference betweeen "detrending" and "smoothing". I would appreciate some suggestions and/or literature references by people experienced about detrending and smoothing. I was told the there are two best methods about detrending: polynomial fit on a sliding window and kernel smoothing. I keep being confused . I got the book by Hardle. Maybe you can advice some other clarifying literature (possibly with examples). Thank you very much. Maura tutti i telefonini TIM!
