  <dc:title>Merger and Acquisition Autoregressive Time-Series Models</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package MAARTS version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Implements comprehensive Merger and Acquisition ('M&amp;A')
    Autoregressive ('AR') time-series models with full statistical analysis
    capabilities. The package provides parameter estimation, forecasting
    with confidence intervals (80%, 90%, 95%, 99%), descriptive statistics,
    stationarity tests (Augmented Dickey-Fuller ('ADF'), Phillips-Perron,
    Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin ('KPSS'),
    Dickey-Fuller Generalized Least Squares ('DF-GLS')), autocorrelation
    analysis (Autocorrelation Function ('ACF'),
    Partial Autocorrelation Function ('PACF')), model diagnostics
    (Ljung-Box, Box-Pierce), accuracy measures
    (Mean Squared Error ('MSE'), Mean Absolute Error ('MAE'),
    Mean Absolute Scaled Error ('MASE'),
    Root Mean Squared Error ('RMSE'),
    Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error ('SMAPE'), F-statistic),
    residual diagnostics (normality tests, heteroscedasticity tests),
    model stability analysis, impulse response, information criteria
    (Akaike Information Criterion ('AIC'),
    Bayesian Information Criterion ('BIC'),
    Hannan-Quinn Information Criterion ('HQIC')),
    structural break analysis, spectral analysis, and Monte Carlo simulation.
    Models are based on:
