statsmodels.tsa.statespace.mlemodel.MLEModel.loglikeobs

MLEModel.loglikeobs(params, transformed=True, includes_fixed=False, complex_step=False, **kwargs)

Loglikelihood evaluation

Parameters:

paramsarray_like

Array of parameters at which to evaluate the loglikelihood function.

transformedbool, optional

Whether or not params is already transformed. Default is True.

**kwargs

Additional keyword arguments to pass to the Kalman filter. See KalmanFilter.filter for more details.

update

modifies the internal state of the Model to reflect new params

Notes

[1] recommend maximizing the average likelihood to avoid scale issues; this is done automatically by the base Model fit method.
