Integer-valued autoregressive (INAR) processes have been introduced to model nonnegative integer-valued phenomena that evolve over time. The distribution of an INAR(p) process is essentially described by two parameters: a vector of autoregression coefficients and a probability distribution on...

It is well-knownthat financial data sets exhibit conditional heteroskedasticity. GARCH type models are often used to model this phenomenon. Since the distribution of the rescaled innovations is generally far froma normal distribution, a semiparametric approach is advisable. Several publications...
