# DASYCAUS: Dynamic Asymmetric Causality Tests

[![Python Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.8+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)

A Python library for **Dynamic Asymmetric and Symmetric Causality Tests** in time series analysis, based on the methodology developed by Hatemi-J (2012, 2021).

## 📚 Overview

DASYCAUS provides a comprehensive implementation of:

- **Static Symmetric Causality Tests** (Granger causality with bootstrap)
- **Static Asymmetric Causality Tests** (testing positive and negative components separately)
- **Dynamic Symmetric Causality Tests** (time-varying causality using subsamples)
- **Dynamic Asymmetric Causality Tests** (time-varying asymmetric causality)

The library implements leverage-adjusted bootstrap procedures for accurate critical value computation and supports various information criteria for optimal lag selection.

## 🔬 Theoretical Background

This library is based on the following key papers:

1. **Hatemi-J, A. (2021).** "Dynamic Asymmetric Causality Tests with an Application." *arXiv:2106.07612*.
   
2. **Hatemi-J, A. (2012).** "Asymmetric Causality Tests with an Application." *Empirical Economics*, 43(1), 447-456.

3. **Hacker, S. and Hatemi-J, A. (2006).** "Tests for causality between integrated variables using asymptotic and bootstrap distributions: theory and application." *Applied Economics*, 38(13), 1489-1500.

4. **Hacker, S. and Hatemi-J, A. (2012).** "A bootstrap test for causality with endogenous lag length choice: theory and application in finance." *Journal of Economic Studies*, 39(2), 144-160.

## 🔧 Quick Start

### Example 1: Static Symmetric Causality Test

```python
import numpy as np
from dasycaus import symmetric_causality_test

# Load your data (T x n matrix)
data = np.loadtxt('your_data.txt')

# Conduct symmetric causality test
results = symmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=8,
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000,
    significance_levels=[0.05, 0.10]
)

print(f"Test Statistic: {results['test_statistic']:.4f}")
print(f"Optimal Lag: {results['optimal_lag']}")
print(f"Reject H0 at 5%: {results['reject_null'][0.05]}")
```

### Example 2: Static Asymmetric Causality Test

```python
from dasycaus import asymmetric_causality_test

# Test positive components
results_positive = asymmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=8,
    component='positive',  # or 'negative'
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000
)

print(f"Positive Component Test Statistic: {results_positive['test_statistic']:.4f}")
```

### Example 3: Dynamic Symmetric Causality Test

```python
from dasycaus import dynamic_symmetric_causality_test
from dasycaus.utils import plot_dynamic_causality, create_summary_table

# Conduct dynamic test
results = dynamic_symmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=8,
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000,
    subsample_method='recursive'  # or 'rolling'
)

# Print summary
print(create_summary_table(results))

# Plot results
plot_dynamic_causality(
    results,
    significance_level=0.05,
    title="Dynamic Causality Test Results",
    save_path="dynamic_test.png"
)
```

### Example 4: Dynamic Asymmetric Causality Test

```python
from dasycaus import dynamic_asymmetric_causality_test

# Test dynamic asymmetric causality for positive components
results = dynamic_asymmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=8,
    component='positive',
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000,
    subsample_method='recursive'
)

# Visualize
plot_dynamic_causality(results, significance_level=0.10)
```

## 📊 Key Features

### 1. Data Transformation
Transform integrated variables into cumulative positive and negative components:

```python
from dasycaus import transform_to_cumulative_components

positive_components = transform_to_cumulative_components(
    data, 
    component='positive',
    include_trend=True
)

negative_components = transform_to_cumulative_components(
    data,
    component='negative',
    include_trend=True
)
```

### 2. Lag Selection
Multiple information criteria supported:

```python
from dasycaus import select_optimal_lag, compare_criteria

# Single criterion
lag_info = select_optimal_lag(
    data,
    maxlags=12,
    info_criterion='hjc'  # 'aic', 'aicc', 'sbc', 'hqc', 'hjc'
)

# Compare all criteria
comparison = compare_criteria(data, maxlags=12)
print(comparison['optimal_lags'])
```

### 3. Bootstrap Critical Values
Leverage-adjusted bootstrap for accurate inference:

```python
from dasycaus import bootstrap_critical_values

cv = bootstrap_critical_values(
    data,
    lag_order=4,
    integration_order=1,
    num_simulations=1000,
    significance_level=0.05,
    leverage_adjustment=True
)
```

### 4. Subsample Methods

**Recursive Method:** Starts with minimum size, adds one observation each iteration
```python
subsample_method='recursive'
```

**Rolling Window Method:** Fixed window size, rolls forward
```python
subsample_method='rolling'
```

## 📈 Application Example: Oil Prices and Stock Market

Replicating the analysis from Hatemi-J (2021):

```python
import numpy as np
from dasycaus import dynamic_asymmetric_causality_test
from dasycaus.utils import plot_dynamic_causality

# Load data (log of oil prices and stock prices)
data = np.loadtxt('oil_stock_data.txt')  # 1990-2020

# Test if oil price increases cause stock market increases
results_positive = dynamic_asymmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=4,
    component='positive',
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000,
    subsample_method='recursive'
)

# Test if oil price decreases cause stock market decreases
results_negative = dynamic_asymmetric_causality_test(
    data=data,
    maxlags=4,
    component='negative',
    integration_order=1,
    info_criterion='hjc',
    bootstrap_sims=1000,
    subsample_method='recursive'
)

# Visualize results
plot_dynamic_causality(
    results_positive,
    significance_level=0.10,
    title="H0: Oil Price Increase Does Not Cause Stock Market Increase"
)
```
