Abstract
. A simple model for a stationary sequence of integer-valued random variables with lag-one dependence is given and is referred to as the integer-valued autoregressive of order one (INAR(1)) process. The model is suitable for counting processes in which an element of the process at time t can be either the survival of an element of the process at time t - 1 or the outcome of an innovation process. The correlation structure and the distributional properties of the INAR(1) model are similar to those of the continuous-valued AR(1) process. Several methods for estimating the parameters of the model are discussed, and the results of a simulation study for these estimation methods are presented.

Individual effects and dynamics in count data models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the panel data estimation of dynamic models for count data that include correlated fixed effects and predetermined variables, and used a linear feedback model to obtain a consistent estimator for the parameters in the dynamic model.

THE INTEGER‐VALUED AUTOREGRESSIVE (INAR(p)) MODEL

TL;DR: In this article, the existence and ergodic properties of the integer-valued autoregressive model with lag p dependence were proved and it was shown that the correlation structure of the INAR model is similar to that of the continuous-valued auto-regression process.

Thinning operations for modeling time series of counts—a survey

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of binomial thinning operations and their application to integer-valued ARMA models is presented. But this paper is restricted to the case of Poisson counts.

Some arma models for dependent sequences of Poisson counts

TL;DR: In this article, a family of models for discrete-time processes with Poisson marginal distributions is developed and investigated, and the joint distribution of n consecutive observations in a process is derived and its properties discussed.

Recent developments in count data modelling: theory and application

TL;DR: In this paper, statistical methods for modeling individual behavior when the endogenous variable is a nonnegative integer are discussed with a focus on specification, estimation, and testing, and an application to labor mobility data illustrates the gain obtained by carefully taking into account the specific structure of the data.

Discrete analogues of self-decomposability and stability

TL;DR: In this paper, analogues for the concepts of self-decomposability and stability for distributions on the nonnegative integers were proposed, and it turns out that these "discrete self-Decomposable" and "Discrete Stable" distributions have properties that are quite similar to those of their continuous counterparts.

On Conditional Least Squares Estimation for Stochastic Processes

TL;DR: In this paper, an estimation procedure for stochastic processes based on the minimization of a sum of squared deviations about conditional expectations is developed, and the estimators and their limiting covariance matrix are worked out in detail for a subcritical branching process with immigration.

First Order Autoregressive Gamma Sequences and Point Processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that there is an innovation process such that the sequence of random variables generated by the linear, additive first-order autoregressive scheme X n = pXn-1 + ∊ n are marginally distributed as gamma (λ, k) variables if 0 ≦p ≦ 1.

A Monte Carlo study of autoregressive integrated moving average processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the simpler ARMA type models are examined with respect to properties of a variety of proposed estimators of unknown parameters, and the authors suggest that if only one estimation method were available to a researcher, the choice should probably be maximum likelihood.
