ARFIMA(p,d,q) estimator

Maximum likelihood estimators of stationary univariate ARFIMA(p,d,q) processes.

ARFIMA(p,d,q) maximum likelihood estimators:

- Whittle estimator
- Exact maximum likelihood estimator

-and some other,possibly useful functions,forecasting included.I've yet to implement the prediction error bands calculation (as one can judge from the screenshot).

Requirements:

-Statistics Toolbox
-Optimization Toolbox
-Kevin Sheppard's MFE Toolbox

Optional requirements:

-Simone Fatichi's ARFIMA(p,d,q) simulator(MATLAB Central FileExchange #25611)

The latter is required for testing the algorithms' performance (implemented in arfima_test).

NOTICE: this time, a C/MEX file is there to speed up the process,without a .m equivalent.It compiled with several compilers (LCC and MS VC++ 2008) and proved to be stable for me.

Further updates are planned:

-other estimation algorithms
-documentation
-etc.
