While most of the literature about INARMA models (integer-valued autoregressive moving-average) concentrates on the purely autoregressive INAR models, we consider INARMA models that also include a moving-average part. We study moment properties and show how to efficiently implement maximum likelihood estimation. We analyze the estimation performance and consider the topic of model selection. We also analyze the consequences of choosing an inadequate model for the given count process. Two real-data examples are presented for illustration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
