Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRobust Modelling of Coronavirus Cases in Egypt: Poisson INARCH and Negative Binomial INARCHHanan ElsaiedThis study compares robust Poisson INARCH(P) models (more briefly: RP-INARCH) and robust negative binomial INARCH(p) models (more briefly: RNB-INARCH) to fit the new daily confirmed cases for the first wave of COVID 19 in Egypt. The robust estimation of these models is based on some modifications of the Conditional Maximum Likelihood Estimates (CMLE). The simulation results show that RNB-INARCH is … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 23 Jun 2021 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
