% PURPOSE:
%      To Estimate a scalar BEKK multivariate GARCH model.  ****SEE WARNING AT END OF HELP FILE****
% 
% 
% USAGE:
%      [parameters, loglikelihood, Ht, likelihoods, stdresid, stderrors, A, B, scores]  = scalar_bekk_mvgarch(data,p,q,options);
% 
% 
% INPUTS:
%      data          - A t by k matrix of zero mean residuals
%      p             - The lag length of the innovation process
%      q             - The lag length of the AR process
%      options       - (optional) Options for the optimization(fminunc)
% 
% 
% OUTPUTS:
%      parameters    - A (k*(k+1))/2+p+q vector of estimated parameteters. 
%                         To recover C, use ivech(parmaeters(1:(k*(k+1))/2)
%      loglikelihood - The loglikelihood of the function at the optimum
%      Ht            - A k x k x t 3 dimension matrix of conditional covariances
%      likelihoods   - A t by 1 vector of individual likelihoods
%      stdresid      - A t by k matrix of multivariate standardized residuals
%      stderrors     - A numParams^2 square matrix of robust Standad Errors(A^(-1)*B*A^(-1)*t^(-1))
%      A             - The estimated inverse of the non-robust Standard errors
%      B             - The estimated covariance of the scores
%      scores        - A t by numParams matrix of individual scores

% COMMENTS:
%      ***************************************************************************************
%      *  THIS FUNCTION INVOLVES ESTIMATING QUITE A FEW PARAMETERS WHEN K IS LARGE.  THE EXACT 
%      *  NUMBER OF  PARAMETERS NEEDING TO BE ESTIMATED IS (k*(k+1))/2+p+q.  FOR A 10 VARIATE 
%      *  (1,1) MODEL THIS INVLOVES 56 PARAMETERS.
