bushpath

Extract entries from node of bushy tree

Description

example

Values = bushpath(Tree,BranchList) extracts entries of a node of a bushy tree. The node path is described by the sequence of branchings taken, starting at the root. The top branch is number 1, the second-to-top is 2, and so on. Set the branch sequence to zero to obtain the entries at the root node.

Examples

collapse all

Create an HJM tree by loading the example file.

load deriv.mat; 

Use bushpath to return the rates at the tree nodes located by taking the up branch, then the down branch, and finally the up branch again.

FwdRates = bushpath(HJMTree.FwdTree, [1 2 1]) 
FwdRates = 4×1

You can visualize this with the treeviewer function.

treeviewer(HJMTree)
