public class DirectIborCapletFloorletFlatVolatilityCalibrator
extends Object
```
Caplet volatilities calibration to cap volatilities.
The volatilities of the constituent caplets in the market caps are "model parameters" and calibrated to the market data under the penalty constraint. The penalty is based on the second-order finite difference differentiation along the expiry dimension.
The resultant volatility type is the same as the input volatility type. e.g., Black caplet volatilities BlackIborCapletFloorletExpiryFlatVolatilities are returned if Black cap volatilities are plugged in, and normal caplet volatilities NormalIborCapletFloorletExpiryFlatVolatilities are returned otherwise.
The calibration is conducted once the cap volatilities are converted to cap prices. Thus the error values in RawOptionData are applied in the price space rather than the volatility space.

Method Detail

standard

public static DirectIborCapletFloorletFlatVolatilityCalibrator standard()

Obtains the standard instance.

Returns:: the instance

of

public static DirectIborCapletFloorletFlatVolatilityCalibrator of(VolatilityIborCapFloorLegPricer pricer,
                                                                  double epsilon,

Obtains an instance.

The epsilon is the parameter used in NonLinearLeastSquareWithPenalty, where the iteration stops when certain quantities are smaller than this parameter.

Parameters:: pricer - the cap pricer; epsilon - the epsilon parameter; referenceData - the reference data
Returns:: the instance

calibrate

public IborCapletFloorletVolatilityCalibrationResult calibrate(IborCapletFloorletVolatilityDefinition definition,
                                                               ZonedDateTime calibrationDateTime,

Calibrates caplet volatilities to cap volatilities.

Parameters:: definition - the caplet volatility definition; calibrationDateTime - the calibration time; capFloorData - the cap data; ratesProvider - the rates provider
Returns:: the calibration result

getReferenceData
