least absolute deviation matlab

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
Is the a way to do parameter estimation using Least Absolute deviation with constraints in matlab.
If so, please let me know of a place to read about it.
thanks.

If you are talking about the problem
min_x sum( abs(r(x)))
it is equivalent to
min_{x,d} sum(d)
s.t.
r(x) <=d
-r(x)<=d
The above formulation is differentiable if r(x) is differentiable, so FMINCON can handle it. You can obviously add any additional constraints you wish, so long as they too are differentiable.

thank you.
I used your code to test the data set I have. BOTH parameter estimates should be 0.1. However, the estimates I get using your code are very different. is there a way to fix it. From a standard theory I know that when you regress the y vector I have mentioned on the x vector I should get parameters, both equal to 0.1
clc;
clear;
p=1;
T = 300;
a0 = 0.1; a1 = 0.1;
seed=123;
ra = randn(T+2000,1);
epsi=zeros(T+2000,1);
simsig=zeros(T+2000,1);
unvar = a0/(1-a1);
for i = 1:T+2000
if (i==1)
simsig(i) = unvar;
s=(simsig(i))^0.5;
epsi(i) = ra(i) * s;
else
simsig(i) = a0+ a1*(epsi(i-1))^2;
s=(simsig(i))^0.5;
epsi(i) = ra(i)* s;
end
end
epsi2 = epsi.^2;
y = epsi2(2001:T+2000); % THIS IS THE DATA SET I WANT TO TEST.
len = length(y);
x = zeros(len,p);
for i = 1:p
x(1+i:len,i) = y(1:len-i,1); % THIS IS THE x VECTOR
end
N=length(x);
e=ones(N,1);
f=[0,0,e.'];
A=[x(:),e,-speye(N);-x(:), -e, -speye(N)];
b=[y(:);-y(:)];
lb=zeros(N+2,1);
ub=inf(N+2,1); ub(1)=1;
%%Perform fit and test
p=linprog(f,A,b,[],[],lb,ub);
slope=p(1),
intercept=p(2),

All I can say is that I tested the example code I gave you. It worked fine for me and produced accurate estimates.
