Smooth Transition Regression Models

Click here to download a zip file containing a set of Matlab codes to estimate logistic smooth transition regression models. The model is described in McAleer and Medeiros (2008, Journal of Econometrics) or Hillebrand, Medeiros, and Xu (2010). The main function is mrstar.m. If you want to use the model to detect and estimate time breaks as in Hillebrand, Medeiros, and Xu (2010), you should simply make the transition variable equal to t/T (q = t/T in the code).
