Dear R collegues, I'm trying to understand what's AIC in R (ver. 1.3.1), and I'm getting a different answer if I look at the AIC(of the fitted model) or the aic in the summary( of the fitted model). Is this correct? Can somebody explain me the difference between the two values? or Is the AIC criterion not appropiated for Poisson models?
It's the AIC _function_ that is inappropriate for glm models. There is no glm method, so the lm method is used. Martin: I think you moved AIC and logLik into base R: this needs sorting out. [...]
