stochvol - Efficient Bayesian Inference for Stochastic Volatility (SV) Models
Efficient algorithms for fully Bayesian estimation of stochastic volatility (SV) models with and without asymmetry (leverage) via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Methodological details are given in Kastner and Frühwirth-Schnatter (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2013.01.002> and Hosszejni and Kastner (2019) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-30611-3_8>; the most common use cases are described in Hosszejni and Kastner (2021) <doi:10.18637/jss.v100.i12> and Kastner (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v069.i05> and the package examples.

This is an implementation of the algorithm described in Section 3 of Hosszejni and Frühwirth-Schnatter (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2211.00671>. The algorithm is used to verify that the counting rule CR(r,1) holds for the sparsity pattern of the transpose of a factor loading matrix. As detailed in Section 2 of the same paper, if CR(r,1) holds, then the idiosyncratic variances are generically identified. If CR(r,1) does not hold, then we do not know whether the idiosyncratic variances are identified or not.
