Dear friends, I have been fitting some TS models from the forecast package like ets(), ses(), hw(), HoltWinters(), stlf(), bats() and tbats(), however, when trying to use the AIC and BIC functions, I receive the following error message: Error in UseMethod("logLik") : no applicable method for 'logLik' applied to an object of class "forecast" Yes, the message is clear, those functions cannot be applied to objects from the forecast class. However, I would like to know if there is a way to assess the goodness of fit for this models that is somewhat equivalent to AIC and BIC, or of there is any other function that could help me in the model selection stage, other than computing MASE, MAPE, etc. Any help and or guidance will be greatly appreciated.
