INARMA Models for Count Random Fields -- a Survey

Statistics Theory 2026-05-27 v1 Statistics Theory

Abstract

The thinning-based integer-valued autoregressive moving-average (INARMA) models are popular for count time series. Recently, types of INARMA models have also been developed for count random fields, i.e., for spatial count data located on a regular two-dimensional grid. This article provides a comprehensive survey on existing INARMA random fields, covering approaches with different thinning operators, first- and higher-order models, as well as unilateral and multilateral model structures.
