In this article, a new autoregressive process for finite-range time series of counts is proposed to analyse the finite-range integer-valued data based on an invisible Markov chain. We derive the probabilistic and statistical properties of the model. Conditional least squares (CLS) method and conditional maximum likelihood (CML) method are employed to estimate the parameters of interest. Furthermore, the forecasting problem is addressed. In addition, multiple simulation studies are performed to investigate the finite sample performance of parameter estimators and to compare the proposed estimation methods. The proposed model is applied to a finite-range data series of measles infections in Germany in 2004–2005. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
