• | AiM model file: An edit box with the full path and name of the AiM model file describing the dynamic behavior around steady state of your DSGE model. A browse button is connected with the edit box for convenient and safe editing of paths and filenames. YADA accepts two types of file extensions for AiM model files, ".txt" and ".aim". |
• | DSGE model solver: YADA supports three model solving algorithms; the AiM algorithm of , the and the algorithms. The default is Christopher Sims' gensys, which tends to be more robust than the faster AiM algorithm. In addition, an external DSGE model solver can be used provided that it supports the same input and output variables as the Klein and Sims solvers as well as three additional input variables (StateVariableNames, StateEquationNames and StateShockNames). |
• | Name of model: A text object with the name of the DSGE model. An edit button is connected with the text object for convenience. |
Additional Information
• | A more detailed description about how to setup the AiM model file can also be found in Section 18.1 of the YADA Manual. |
• | A more detailed description about the DSGE model solvers that are supported by YADA can be found in Section 3 of the YADA Manual. |
• | Dynare model files are also accepted, but are not entered by the user within the DSGE Model data frame. Such a file is instead parsed via the Dynare parser and is run from the Dynare Jobs menu-item on the Actions menu. If parsing is successful, then YADA creates an empty AiM file as a placeholder in the AiM model file edit box. |
• | An example file is located in the directory "example\AnSchorfheide" directly below the base directory for YADA. The file is simply called "AnSchorfheideModel.aim". |
