Optional input arguments can make your statistical computing more efficient and enjoyable. GAUSS version 20 added a new suite of tools to make it easy for you to add optional input arguments to your GAUSS procedures. This blog lays the foundation to start using optional arguments in your GAUSS programs.
Cointegration is an important tool for modeling the long-run relationships in time series data. If you work with time series data, you will likely find yourself needing to use cointegration at some point. This blog provides an in-depth introduction to cointegration and will cover all the nuts and bolts you need to get started.
You’re probably familiar with the basic find-and-replace. However, large projects with many files across several directories, require a more powerful search tool. The GAUSS Source Browser is the powerful search-and-replace tool you need. In this blog, you’ll learn more about using the advanced search-and-replace tools in GAUSS to effectively navigate and edit in projects with multiple files and directories.
Panel data, sometimes referred to as longitudinal data, is data that contains observations about different cross sections across time. Panel data exhibits characteristics of both cross-sectional data and time-series data. This blend of characteristics has given rise to a unique branch of time series modeling made up of methodologies specific to panel data structure. This blog offers a complete guide to those methodologies including the nature of panel data series, types of panel data, and panel data models.
The aggregate function, first available in GAUSS version 20, computes statistics within data groups. This is particularly useful for panel data. In today’s blog, we take a closer look at aggregate.
The GAUSS Package Manager, first introduced in version 20, allows you to download, install and uninstall GAUSS packages without leaving GAUSS. It supports the paid GAUSS Application Modules, free GAUSS packages and even allows you to create custom packages and channels. This post will guide you through the basics needed to install and uninstall GAUSS packages.
This blog introduces the latest additions to GAUSS. Read it today to learn all about the newest GAUSS features for data analysis, now available in GAUSS 20.
In time series modeling we often encounter trending or nonstationary time series data. Understanding the characteristics of such data is crucial for developing proper time series models. For this reason, unit root testing is an essential step when dealing with time series data. In this blog post, we cover everything you need to conduct time series data unit root tests using GAUSS.
The statistical characteristics of time series data often violate the assumptions of conventional statistical methods. Because of this, analyzing time series data requires a unique set of tools and methods, collectively known as time series analysis. This article covers the fundamental concepts of time series analysis and should give you a foundation for working with time series data. Everything is covered from time series plotting to time series modeling.
