We propose a dynamic factor model for the analysis of multivariate time series count data. Our model allows for idiosyncratic as well as common serially correlated latent factors in order to account for potentially complex dynamic interdependence between series of counts. The model is estimated...

This paper compares various models for time series of counts which can account for discreetness, overdispersion and serial correlation. Besides observation- and parameter-driven models based upon corresponding conditional Poisson distributions, we also consider a dynamic ordered probit model as...

This paper proposes a new spatial lag regression model which addresses global spatial autocorrelation arising from cross-sectional dependence between counts. Our approach offers an intuitive interpretation of the spatial correlation parameter as a measurement of the impact of neighbouring...
