Hi there,
Relative newbie to the world of SSM and have recently found this amazing package!
I need to fit the following model
where the innovations u_{i,t} and v_{i,t) are uncorrelated and HFT^S and nHFT^S are exogenous variables ( HFT^S_tilda and HFT^S_ntilda are residuals of these variables from an AR model).
Can the sm.tsa.DynamicFactor or sm.tsa.UnobservedComponents functions be used to fit such a model off the shelf or do I need to create my own set-up/class inputting the matrices etc?
Model comes from:
Jonathan Brogaard, Terrence Hendershott, Ryan Riordan, High-Frequency Trading and Price Discovery, The Review of Financial Studies, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2014, Pages 2267–2306,
Thanks in advance!
