[Trac] #110: Implement block decomposition for stochastic models

#110: Implement block decomposition for stochastic models --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: sebastien | Owner: ferhat Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 4.2 Component: Core M-files | Version: Keywords: | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- This can be very useful for some models. For example, the BoE has a model with bond prices with a horizon of 10 years ahead (i.e. 40 periods). The bond prices do not feedback into the core of the macro model, so the pricing equations are purely forward. At order 3, Dynare is currently at pains to solve the model. The block decomposition would dramatically improve performance here. -- Ticket URL: <https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/110> Dynare <http://www.dynare.org> The Dynare project

[Trac] #121: Revert example MOD files in user guide to mode_compute=4

#121: Revert example MOD files in user guide to mode_compute=4 ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: sebastien | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 4.2 Component: Documentation | Version: Keywords: | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ The estimation examples in the user guide are not behaving nice with mode_compute=6, because of the non-deterministic nature of estimation. Many users were confused because on some runs, the example were failing because the hessian at the mode was not definite positive. As a quick fix, the mode_compute option was changed to 6 in 4ec5016e5fed4d51e4ac987c1e8f4bcc85f3148f and 7b59c012b992387c2cc11ab5dd5a8175051cce79. The problem is that the examples are now a lot slower than before. We should revert back to mode_compute=4 when #85 is fixed and we have a way to fix the seed. -- Ticket URL: <https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/121> Dynare <http://www.dynare.org> The Dynare project

#175: bug in discretionary_policy_engine.m --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: michel | Owner: michel Type: bug | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Core M-files | Version: Keywords: | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- - first function is not terminated by 'end' contrarily to the other ones. Matlab (r2010b) is missing it. - W may not be initialized correctly. ./tests/discretionary_policy/dennis_1.mod is an example. Because of above, Matlab is missing it, but Octave detects it. -- Ticket URL: <https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/175> Dynare <http://www.dynare.org> The Dynare project

by Sébastien Villemot 02 May '11

02 May '11

Hi, I think we should now prepare for the release of 4.2.1: we released 4.2.0 almost 3 months ago, and we found many bugs. Before the release can happen, we need to fix several tickets. I list them below, along with the person responsible for fixing it. If you feel you need some help for fixing it within one week or two, let me know. - Problem with computation of planner objective (Michel) https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/166 - Crash in partial information (George) https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/179 - Possible bug in DSGE-VAR (Stéphane) https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/177 There are also two issues with the reference manual: - Entry for unit_root_vars https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/167 - Forecast graphs https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/102 -- Sébastien Villemot CEPREMAP - Paris School of Economics Homepage: http://www.dynare.org/sebastien Landline phone: +33 1 40 77 49 90 SIP phone: sebastien.villemot(a)ekiga.net PGP Key: 0xA6C029B9D06B2913D71C105EBE37E801FB6EFF8B (http://pgp.mit.edu/)
