Dear all, this message is to inform the community about the activity in our function package repository: during the month of November 2024, 3 packages were updated to a new version: "season_plot", by Artur Tarassow (special plots for seasonal time series) "thresh_infer", by Sven Schreiber (inference on threshold effects in regression models, mainly methods by Bruce Hansen) "thresh_search", by Sven Schreiber (multiple-regime regression as per Gonzalo & Pitarakis, 2002, JoE) Artur has just sent a message about season_plot, that provides a more modern replacement for Ignacio Diaz-Emparanza's "buys-ballot" package. As for Sven's packages, they're obviously quite closely related. Download them and see for yourselves! ------------------------------------------------------- Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche e Sociali (DiSES) Università Politecnica delle Marche (formerly known as Università di Ancona) r.lucchetti(a)univpm.it http://www2.econ.univpm.it/servizi/hpp/lucchetti -------------------------------------------------------
