Abstract:
|
For various reasons, systems of time series may fail to satisfy cross-sectional aggregation constraints. To restore coherence in such systems---and as part of its Forillon project---Statistics Canada developed a user-defined SAS procedure called PROC TSRAKING. This poster will introduce the new procedure, present its main features and illustrate the implemented methodology with simple examples.
