AIC.ibr {ibr}

Summarizing iterative bias reduction fits

Description

Generic function calculating the Akaike information criterion for one model objects of ibr class for which a log-likelihood value can be obtained, according to the formula -2 \log(sigma^2) + k df/n, where df represents the effective degree of freedom (trace) of the smoother in the fitted model, and k = 2 for the usual AIC, or k = \log(n) (n the number of observations) for the so-called BIC or SBC (Schwarz's Bayesian criterion).

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ibr'
AIC(object, ..., k = 2)

Arguments

object

A fitted model object of class ibr.

...

Not used.

k

Numeric, the penalty per parameter to be used; the default k = 2 is the classical AIC.

Details

The ibr method for AIC, AIC.ibr() calculates \log(sigma^2)+2*df/n, where df is the trace of the smoother.

Value

returns a numeric value with the corresponding AIC (or BIC, or ..., depending on k).
