statsmodels.tsa.statespace.tools.constrain_stationary_univariate(unconstrained)[source]

Transform unconstrained parameters used by the optimizer to constrained parameters used in likelihood evaluation

Parameters:unconstrained (array) – Unconstrained parameters used by the optimizer, to be transformed to stationary coefficients of, e.g., an autoregressive or moving average component.
Returns:constrained – Constrained parameters of, e.g., an autoregressive or moving average component, to be transformed to arbitrary parameters used by the optimizer.
Return type:array
