Mixed Data Sampling (MIDAS)
MIDAS entry to
Wikipedia
(Entry written by Dirk Nachbar)
Regression models involving data sampled at different frequencies are of general interest. In
the document link below we describe Matlab code for running such regressions based on a framework
put forward in recent work by Ghysels, Santa-Clara, and Valkanov (2002), Ghysels, Santa-
Clara, and Valkanov (2006) and Andreou, Ghysels, and Kourtellos (2008a) using so called
MIDAS, meaning Mi(xed) Da(ta) S(ampling), regressions.
