statsmodels.tsa.statespace.tools.constrain_stationary_univariate(unconstrained)[source]

Transform unconstrained parameters used by the optimizer to constrained parameters used in likelihood evaluation

Parameters:

unconstrained : array

Unconstrained parameters used by the optimizer, to be transformed to stationary coefficients of, e.g., an autoregressive or moving average component.

Returns:

constrained : array

Constrained parameters of, e.g., an autoregressive or moving average component, to be transformed to arbitrary parameters used by the optimizer.
