Dear Dynare users and friends,

We are pleased to announce the release of Dynare 4.5.1.

This is a bug fix release.

The Windows packages are already available for download at:

http://www.dynare.org/download/dynare-stable

The Mac and GNU/Linux packages (for Debian and Ubuntu LTS) should follow soon.

This release is compatible with MATLAB versions 7.3 (R2006b) to 9.2 (R2017a)
and with GNU Octave versions 4.2.

Here is a list of the problems identified in version 4.5.0 and that have been
fixed in version 4.5.1:

  • Fixed out of memory issue with simpsa optimization algorithm.

  • Added missing plots for measurement errors with generate_trace_plot
    command.

  • Posterior moments after MCMC for very big models were not correctly computed
    and their plotting might crash Dynare.

  • Results of the posterior conditional variance decomposition after MCMC were
    not correctly computed.

  • Options use_shock_groups and colormap of the shock_decomposition
    command were not working.

  • Added a clean error message if sensitivity toolbox is used with recursive
    estimation.

  • Computation of posterior filtered variables was crashing in models with only
    one variable.

  • Fixed various typos and errors in the reference manual.

On behalf of the Dynare Team
Stéphane.
