Class SeasonalCurve

java.lang.Object

net.finmath.marketdata.model.curves.AbstractCurve

net.finmath.marketdata.model.curves.SeasonalCurve

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, ParameterObjectInterface, CurveInterface

public class SeasonalCurve
extends AbstractCurve
implements CurveInterface

The curve returns a value depending on the month of the time argument, that is, a call getValue(model, time) will map time to a 30/360 value using the day and month only and delegate the call to a given base curve. The value returned then is baseCurve.getValue(model, season) where season = (month-1) / 12.0 + (day-1) / (double)numberOfDays / 12.0; The base curve has to be constructed according to this time convention (e.g., as a piecewise constant curve with values at i / 12 for i=1,...,12 using Curve.InterpolationMethod with PIECEWISE_CONSTANT_RIGHTPOINT.

Constructor Detail

SeasonalCurve

public SeasonalCurve(String name,
                     LocalDate referenceDate,
                     Map<LocalDate,Double> indexFixings,
                     int numberOfYearsToAverage)

Create a monthly seasonality adjustment curve by estimating historic log-returns from monthly index fixings.

Parameters:

name - The name of this curve.

referenceDate - The reference date for this curve (i.e. t=0).

indexFixings - A Map<Date, Double> of consecutive monthly index fixings.

numberOfYearsToAverage - The number of years over which monthly log returns should be averaged.

SeasonalCurve

public SeasonalCurve(String name,
                     LocalDate referenceDate,
                     CurveInterface baseCurve)

Parameters:

name - The name of this curve.

referenceDate - The reference date for this curve (i.e. t=0).

baseCurve - The base curve, i.e., the discount curve used to calculate the seasonal adjustment factors.

Method Detail

getParameter

public double[] getParameter()

Description copied from interface: ParameterObjectInterface

Get the current parameter associated with the state of the objects.

Specified by:

getParameter in interface ParameterObjectInterface

Returns:

The parameter.

setParameter

public void setParameter(double[] parameter)

Description copied from interface: ParameterObjectInterface

Set the current parameter and change the state of the objects.

Specified by:

setParameter in interface ParameterObjectInterface

Parameters:

parameter - The parameter associated with the new state of the objects.

getValue

public double getValue(AnalyticModelInterface model,
                       double time)

Description copied from interface: CurveInterface

Returns the value for the time using the interpolation method associated with this curve within a given context, i.e., a model. The model (context) is needed only if the curve relies on another curve. Examples are a forward curve which relies on a discount curve or a discount curve which is defined via a spread over another curve.

Specified by:

getValue in interface CurveInterface

Parameters:

model - An analytic model providing a context.

time - Time for which the value should be returned.

Returns:

The value at the give time.

getCloneForParameter

public CurveInterface getCloneForParameter(double[] value)
                                    throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: ParameterObjectInterface

Create a clone with a modified parameter.

Specified by:

getCloneForParameter in interface ParameterObjectInterface

Specified by:

getCloneForParameter in interface CurveInterface

Overrides:

getCloneForParameter in class AbstractCurve

Parameters:

value - The new parameter.

Returns:

A clone with an otherwise modified parameter.

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - Thrown, when the curve could not be cloned.

clone

public SeasonalCurve clone()
                    throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: CurveInterface

Create a deep copied clone.

Specified by:

clone in interface CurveInterface

Overrides:

clone in class AbstractCurve

Returns:

A clone (deep copied).

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - Thrown, when the curve could not be cloned.

getCloneBuilder

public CurveBuilderInterface getCloneBuilder()
                                      throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: CurveInterface

Returns a curve builder bases on a clone of this curve. Using that curve builder you may create a new curve from this curve by adding points or changing properties. Note: The clone has the same name than this one.

Specified by:

getCloneBuilder in interface CurveInterface

Returns:

An object implementing the CurveBuilderInterface where the underlying curve is a clone of this curve.

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - Thrown, when this curve could not be cloned.

                                                  int numberOfYearsToAverage)

Computes annualized seasonal adjustments from given monthly realized CPI values.

Parameters:

realizedCPIValues - An array of consecutive monthly CPI values (minimum size is 12*numberOfYearsToAverage))

lastMonth - The index of the last month in the sequence of realizedCPIValues (corresponding to the enums in Month).

numberOfYearsToAverage - The number of years to go back in the array of realizedCPIValues.

Returns:

Array of annualized seasonal adjustments, where [0] corresponds to the adjustment for from December to January.
