Re: Questions regarding options in FIML and solveopt

Yes, on the last tab.

M controls the numerical optimization engine.
Could you please elaborate a little bit...? :) The default is 5000, when should I consider changing this number?

Re: Questions regarding options in FIML and solveopt

I have a follow-up question to this, after reading in the manual about "Solving the model" (http://www.eviews.com/help/helpintro.html#page/content%2Fmodels-Solving_the_Model.html%23). What is the difference between M (Maximum number of iterations for solution) and R (number of stochastic i...

Questions regarding options in FIML and solveopt

Hi all, Sorry if I've misplaced this question. I have a program written by someone else, that I am trying to adjust to my data and estimations. I've had some trouble and therefore need to make sure I understand every bit of the code. I've been trying to look in the user manual and at eviews.com/help...

Re: Warning only appears when rerunning program

If the equation is not converging, all bets are off Meaning....? What problem should I focus on fixing first: that I don't get the same estimation results/I get a warning when rerunning a program, or that the equation is not converging if I restart Eviews. Or is the first a consequence of the latte...

Re: Warning only appears when rerunning program

Two obvious and common causes for estimation results to differ: the underlying data are different, or the starting values used in estimation are different. Third, although far far less common, possibility is that the estimation is actually very very very close to being singular, and sometimes rando...

Re: Warning only appears when rerunning program

We'd need to see the rest of the program and the database to have a good idea of what is going on. Since the code is not written by me, I am not comfortable with sharing the entire code, but I can see if I manage to generalize it a bit more (but then I'll probably generalize too much, so the proble...

Warning only appears when rerunning program

Hi all, I am quite new to EViews (v9), and I am trying to work on/adjust a program given to me by someone else. According to this link: http://forums.eviews.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=893 my question is "nonsensical", but here it goes anyway... I have adjusted the program to my own data a...
