Gaussian and Student-t Copula Models for Count Time Series

v0.2.3 · Mar 19, 2026 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Provides likelihood-based inference for Gaussian and Student-t copula models for univariate count time series. Supports Poisson, negative binomial, binomial, beta-binomial, and zero-inflated marginals with ARMA dependence structures. Includes simulation, maximum-likelihood estimation, residual diagnostics, and predictive inference. Implements Time Series Minimax Exponential Tilting (TMET) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2026.108344>, an adaptation of minimax exponential tilting of Botev (2017) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12162>. Also provides a linear-cost implementation of the Geweke–Hajivassiliou–Keane (GHK) simulator following Masarotto and Varin (2012) <doi:10.1214/12-EJS721>, and the Continuous Extension (CE) approximation of Nguyen and De Oliveira (2025) <doi:10.1080/02664763.2025.2498502>. The package follows the S3 design philosophy of 'gcmr' but is developed independently.
