TREND EXTRACTION FROM ECONOMIC TIME SERIES WITH MISSING OBSERVATIONS BY GENERALIZED HODRICK–PRESCOTT FILTERS
利用广义 HP 滤波提取含缺失观测经济序列的趋势
The Hodrick–Prescott (HP) filter has been a popular method of trend extraction from economic time series. However, it is impractical without modification if some observations are not available. This paper improves the HP filter so that it can be applied in such situations. More precisely, this paper introduces two alternative generalized HP filters that are applicable for this purpose. We provide their properties and a way of specifying those smoothing parameters that are…
