Count time series are widely encountered in practice. As with continuous valued data, many count have seasonal properties. This paper uses a recent advance stationary to develop general modeling paradigm. The model constructed here permits any marginal distribution for the and most flexible autocorrelations possible, including those negative dependence. Likelihood methods of inference explored....
