Türkiye’de durgunlukların mars yöntemi ile tahmini ve kestirimi

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de durgunlukların tahmin ve kestiriminin yapılması amaçlanmaktadır. NBER’in tanımlaması temel alınarak belirlenen durgunluk olaylarına dair gözlemler kullanılarak, MARS yöntemiyle örneklem içi kestirimler yapılmıştır. Parametrik ve doğrusal olmayan MARS yöntemi kestirimlerde önemli üstünlükler sunmaktadır. 1986:I-2010:IV dönemini kapsayan analizin bulguları, MARS modelinin Türkiye’deki durgunlukları başarıyla tahmin ettiğini göstermektedir. Modelin kestirim performansı da bir hayli yüksektir.

Estimation and forecasting with mars method of recessions in Turkey

In this study aims to estimate and to forecast recessions in Turkey. Using observations relating to recession cases that determined based on NBER definition, in-sample forecasting for recessions is performed by MARS method. Non-parametric and non-linear MARS method presents considerable superiorities for forecastings. The findings of analysis that contained 1986:I-2010:IV period is showed that the MARS model had successfully estimated recessions in Turkey. Forecasting performance of the model is quite high.
