Abstract: This paper studies theory and inference of an observation-driven model for time series of counts. It is assumed that the observations follow a Poisson distribution conditioned on an accompanying intensity process, which is equipped with a two-regime structure according to the magnitude of the lagged observations. The model remedies one of the drawbacks of the Poisson autoregression model by allowing possibly negative correlation in the observations. Classical Markov chain theory and Lyapunov's method are utilized to derive the conditions under which the process has a unique invariant probability measure and to show a strong law of large numbers of the intensity process. Moreover the asymptotic theory of the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters is established. A simulation study and a real data application are considered, where the model is applied to the number of major earthquakes in the world.
