Computes the likelihood-based statistics (Neg2LogLike, AIC, BIC and HQIC) from unitquantreg objects.

Usage

likelihood_stats(..., lt = NULL)

# S3 method for likelihood_stats
print(x, ...)

Arguments

...

unitquantreg objects separated by commas. Not use in print method.

lt

a list with one or more unitquantreg objects.

x

object of class likelihood_stats obtained from likelihood_stats function.

Value

A list with class "likelihood_stats" containing the following components:

call

the matched call.

stats

ordered matrix according AIC value containg the likelihood based statistics.

Details

Neg2LogLike: The log-likelihood is reported as $$Neg2LogLike= -2\log(L)$$

AIC: The Akaike's information criterion (AIC) is defined as $$AIC = -2\log(L)+2p$$

BIC: The Schwarz Bayesian information criterion (BIC) is defined as $$BIC = -2\log(L) + p\log(n)$$

HQIC: The Hannan and Quinn information criterion (HQIC) is defined as $$HQIC = -2\log(L) + 2p\log[\log(n)]$$ where \(L\) is the likelihood function.
