Overview

About

Maintained by Shikhar TyagiCRAN page ↗

Implements comprehensive Merger and Acquisition ('M&A') Autoregressive ('AR') time-series models with full statistical analysis capabilities. The package provides parameter estimation, forecasting with confidence intervals (80%, 90%, 95%, 99%), descriptive statistics, stationarity tests (Augmented Dickey-Fuller ('ADF'), Phillips-Perron, Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin ('KPSS'), Dickey-Fuller Generalized Least Squares ('DF-GLS')), autocorrelation analysis (Autocorrelation Function ('ACF'), Partial Autocorrelation Function ('PACF')), model diagnostics (Ljung-Box, Box-Pierce), accuracy measures (Mean Squared Error ('MSE'), Mean Absolute Error ('MAE'), Mean Absolute Scaled Error ('MASE'), Root Mean Squared Error ('RMSE'), Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error ('SMAPE'), F-statistic), residual diagnostics (normality tests, heteroscedasticity tests), model stability analysis, impulse response, information criteria (Akaike Information Criterion ('AIC'), Bayesian Information Criterion ('BIC'), Hannan-Quinn Information Criterion ('HQIC')), structural break analysis, spectral analysis, and Monte Carlo simulation. Models are based on: Kumar, Mudassir, and Agiwal (2024) https://ph02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/thaistat/article/view/253436, Kumar, Mudassir, and Srivastava (2025) doi:10.1007/s44199-025-00104-3, Kumar and Mudassir (2025) doi:10.19139/soic-2310-5070-2029.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("MAARTS", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-maarts

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-MAARTS

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-MAARTS

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
