ols_sbic: Sawa's bayesian information criterion

Description

Sawa's bayesian information criterion for model selection.

Usage

ols_sbic(model, full_model)

Value

Sawa's Bayesian Information Criterion

Arguments

model

An object of class lm.

full_model

An object of class lm.

Details

Sawa (1978) developed a model selection criterion that was derived from a Bayesian modification of the AIC criterion. Sawa's Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) is a function of the number of observations n, the SSE, the pure error variance fitting the full model, and the number of independent variables including the intercept.

$$SBIC = n * ln(SSE / n) + 2(p + 2)q - 2(q^2)$$

where \(q = n(\sigma^2)/SSE\), n is the sample size, p is the number of model parameters including intercept SSE is the residual sum of squares.
