changes to addfactors?

[zezza]

I have been using the code

Code: Select all

mymodel.addassign(v) @stochastic mymodel.addinit(v=n) @stochastic

to have solutions perfectly aligned to the data.
It is now no longer working, I have a discrepancy between model solution and the data.
Has there been any change in Eviews model procedure?

Thank you

Hello,

There have been updates to various model procedures, but nothing that I believe would cause such a fundamental change to add factor behavior. I haven't been able to replicate the issue you describe, would you be able to provide a workfile demonstrating the problem?

Thank you for checking!
It was our mistake: we computed the addfactors from 2021q1 but simulated our dynamic model from 2020q1 so the 2020 errors cumulated into divergences of the solutions from the data.
Sorry for wasting your time, and thank you again!
