Realized GARCH #53

How much of a pain would it be to try to implement Realized GARCH models, or should that go in a different package? My gut feelings suggest that they are just different enough that it would be a pain to try to fit them in with the existing code here.

Hansen has really nice slides where he shows RealizedGarch/EGarch is a generalization of Garch/EGarch. Since ARCHModels.jl is the main such Julia package it seems natural to include Realized Garch unless @s-broda doesn't think there is any demand.

Hansen's slides 28-29 include a model zoo w/ 16 ARCH models & this package already has most of them...

The thing that seems difficult to adapt into the existing code base is that the existing implementations only have one observable (returns). Long term, I think you are right that the Realized GARCH variants should live in this package, but to me it looks like it could require significant effort.

I do think that this package would be a natural place for realised GARCH to live. Indeed one would need to add the plumbing for a second observable in the likelihood etc. I'm unlikely to find the time for that soon, but would be happy to accept PRs

Any progress?
