The TIMESERIES Procedure

COUNT Statement

(Experimental)

  • COUNT < / options > ;

You can use a COUNT statement to specify options that are related to the discrete distribution analysis of the accumulated time series. Only one COUNT statement is allowed.

You can specify the following options after a slash (/):

ALPHA=number

specifies the confidence limit size. The $\Argument{number}$ must be between 0 and 1; the default is 0.05.

CRITERION=LOGLIK | AIC | BIC

specifies the discrete distribution selection criterion. The default is CRITERION=LOGLIK.

You can specify the following selection criteria:

AIC

specifies the Akaike’s information criterion.

BIC

specifies the Bayesian information criterion.

LOGLIK

specifies the log-likelihood as the criterion.

By default, CRITERION=LOGLIK.

DISTRIBUTION= option | ( options )

specifies one or more discrete distributions for automatic selection. You can specify one or more of the following $\Argument{options}$:

BINOMIAL

specifies the binomial distribution.

ZMBINOMIAL

specifies the zero-modified binomial distribution.

GEOMETRIC

specifies the geometric distribution.

ZMGEOMETRIC

specifies the zero-modified geometric distribution.

POISSON

specifies the Poisson distribution.

ZMPOISSON

specifies the zero-modified Poisson distribution.

NEGBINOMIAL | NEGBIN

specifies the negative binomial distribution.
