Abstract

W pracy zbadana została możliwość wykorzystania algorytmu Viterbiego do analizy sald odpowiedzi respondentów na pytania testu koniunktury w przemyśle, prowadzonego przez Instytut Rozwoju Gospodarczego Szkoły Głównej Handlowej w Warszawie. W badaniu rozważane były pytania dotyczące oceny stanu obecnego. Do analizy wykorzystane zostały ukryte modele Markowa z warunkowymi rozkładami normalnymi. Pod uwagę brane były modele, w których łańcuchy Markowa mają dwuelementową i trójelementową przestrzeń stanów. Uzyskane wyniki zostały skonfrontowane z pochodzącymi z różnych źródeł datowaniami punktów zwrotnych cyklu koniunkturalnego. Badane modele zostały porównane pod względem skuteczności w wychwytywaniu sygnałów o nadchodzących zmianach w koniunkturze. Przeprowadzone analizy przemawiają za stosowaniem modeli z trzystanowymi łańcuchami Markowa. Wyniki badania sugerują ponadto, iż należy brać pod uwagę opóźnienia między odpowiedziami respondentów a zmianami klimatu koniunktury. [The paper considers the possibility of using the Viterbi algorithm to analyse results of the RIED WSE business surveys in the manufacturing industry.The analysis was focused on the state balances. The hidden Markov models with conditional normal distributions were applied. There were considered models with two-state and three-state Markov chains. The results were compared with the timing of turning points taken from other sources. The tested models were compared in terms of effectiveness in detecting of coming changes in economic conditions. The analysis suggests models with three-state Markov chains be used. The results also suggest that it is necessary to take into account a delay between the opinions of survey respondents and changes in economic climate.]
