TVTHRESH: Stata module to estimate time-varying threshold models and tests

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: Threshold regression normally assumes the threshold is the same for every observation. tvthresh is for the case where it is not. It provides nineteen commands covering specification testing, estimation, simulation, plotting and table output. The gateway command tvthomog tests whether the threshold is constant at all, so a user can find out whether any of this is needed before fitting anything. If it is, the estimators cover the four ways a threshold can move: with time (tvtfourier, tvtlasso), with the threshold variable's own recent past (tvtcotar, tvtcotrk, and tvtinar for counts), with other observed variables (tvtcoint, tvtboundary, tvtindex, tvtstar, tvtcovdep), and as an unobserved state of its own (tvtlatent). tvtsel runs the library's diagnostics on the user's data and reports which specifications they point to.
