pmdarima.arima.PPTest

class pmdarima.arima.PPTest(alpha=0.05, lshort=True)

Conduct a PP test for stationarity.

In statistics, the Phillips–Perron test (named after Peter C. B. Phillips and Pierre Perron) is a unit root test. It is used in time series analysis to test the null hypothesis that a time series is integrated of order 1. It builds on the Dickey–Fuller test of the null hypothesis p = 0.

Parameters:

alpha : float, optional (default=0.05)

Level of the test

lshort : bool, optional (default=True)

Whether or not to truncate the l value in the C code.

Notes

This test is generally used indirectly via the pmdarima.arima.ndiffs() function, which computes the differencing term, d.

The R code allows for two types of tests: ‘Z(alpha)’ and ‘Z(t_alpha)’. Since sklearn does not allow extraction of std errors from the linear model fit, t_alpha is much more difficult to achieve, so we do not allow that variant.
