Inspired by the theory about extended Pascal triangles, a new thinning operator named extended binomial is introduced, which is a general case of the binomial thinning. Compared to the binomial thinning operator, the extended binomial thinning operator has two parameters and is more flexible in modeling. Based on the proposed operator, a new integer-valued autoregressive model is introduced, which can accurately and flexibly capture the dispersed features of counting time series. Two-step conditional least squares (CLS) estimation is investigated for the innovation-free case and the conditional maximum likelihood estimation is also discussed. We have also obtained the asymptotic property of the two-step CLS estimator. Finally, three overdispersed or underdispersed real data sets are considered to illustrate a superior performance of the proposed model.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e23010062","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]],"date-time":"2020-12-31T14:31:49Z","timestamp":1609425109000},"page":"62","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["A New Extension of Thinning-Based Integer-Valued Autoregressive Models for Count Data"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Zhengwei","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mathematics, Jilin University, 2699 Qianjin Street, Changchun 130012, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8808-8179","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fukang","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mathematics, Jilin University, 2699 Qianjin Street, Changchun 130012, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Wei\u00df, C.H.
