چکیده

Integer valued AR (INAR) processes are perfectly suited for modelling count data. We consider the inclusion of explanatory variables into the INAR model to extend the applicability of INAR models and give an alternative to Poisson regression models. An efficient MCMC algorithm is constructed to analyze the model and incorporates both explanatory variable and order selection. The methodology is illustrated by analyzing monthly polio incidences in the USA 1970-1983 and claims from the logging industry to the British Columbia Workers’ Compensation Board 1985-1994.

Integer Valued AR(1) with Geometric Innovations

The classical integer valued first-order autoregressive (INA- R(1)) model has been defined on the basis of Poisson innovations. This model has Poisson marginal distribution and is suitable for modeling equidispersed count data. In this paper, we introduce an modification of the INAR(1) model with geometric innovations (INARG(1)) for model- ing overdispersed count data. We discuss some structu...

Process Capability Analysis in the Presence of Autocorrelation

The classical method of process capability analysis necessarily assumes that collected data are independent; nonetheless, some processes such as biological and chemical processes are autocorrelated and violate the independency assumption. Many processes exhibit a certain degree of correlation and can be treated by autoregressive models, among which the autoregressive model of order one (AR (1))...

A Non-radial Approach for Setting Integer-valued Targets in Data Envelopment Analysis

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has been widely studied in the literature since its inception with Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes work in 1978. The methodology behind the classical DEA method is to determine how much improvements in the outputs (inputs) dimensions is necessary in order to render them efficient. One of the underlying assumptions of this methodology is that the units consume and prod...
