IC.SVC_mle {varycoef}

Conditional Akaike's and Bayesian Information Criteria

Description

Methods to calculate information criteria for SVC_mle objects. Currently, two are supported: the conditional Akaike's Information Criteria cAIC = -2*log-likelihood + 2*(edof + df) and the Bayesian Information Criteria BIC = -2*log-likelihood + log(n) * npar. Note that the Akaike's Information Criteria is of the corrected form, that is: edof is the effective degrees of freedom which is derived as the trace of the hat matrices and df is the degree of freedoms with respect to mean parameters.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'SVC_mle'
BIC(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'SVC_mle'
AIC(object, conditional = "BW", ...)

Arguments

object

SVC_mle object

...

further arguments

conditional

string. If conditional = "BW", the conditional AIC is calculated.

Value

numeric, value of information criteria
