Error in Estimating the Model

[msh855]

Hi

I have a medium scale NK model.
I have managed to solve it. I have the mod file attached.
But, I am also trying to estimate the model using Bayesian methods. Attached as well
I receive an error all the time, saying not enough parameters and cannot understand what I am missing.

Can someone help me wih the estimation. In particular, with the priors and in finding a steady state.

I am attaching the data I am usig.

1. The parameters

std_vt, r_bar, std_at, std_lt, std_it, std_pit, std_nt, std_wt,
R_bar, cy_bar, Iy_bar, gy_bar, Igy_bar, try_bar, wLy_bar, rky_bar, by_bar, tao_cbar, tao_kbar, tao_lbar, std_tc,
std_tl, std_tk, std_tr, std_ig

are not estimated, but also have not been set before estimation. Therefore, they are NaN.
2. I am not sure you are correctly reading in the data. The text-file you use does not work. I am attaching a mat-file that can be read in
3. I am pretty sure your observation equation is not correct. The concept of measured inflation in the data does not map into the model one (gross vs. net, demeaned or not).
