This paper is a user' guide to a set of Guss procedures developed at the Bank of Canada for estimating regime-switching models. The procedure can estimate relatively quickly a wide variety of switching models and so should prove useful to the applied researchers. Sample program listings are...

The present document details, step by step, an efficient and simple way to construct the file input for the programs TRAMO ("Time Series Regression with ARIMA Noise Missing Observations, and Outliers") and SEATS ("Signal Extraction in ARIMA Time Series") for all possible cases and applications....

SETSTOCH is a tool for linking Algebraic Modeling Languages with Specialized Stochastic Programming Solvers. Its main role is to retrieve from the modeling language a dynamically ordered core model (baseline scenario) that is then sent automatically to the Stochastic Solver. The user is thus...
