## Bayesian information criterion (BIC) method

### Description

A method to calculate the Bayesian information criterion (BIC), also known as Schwarz's Bayesian criterion of an FLModel object from the value of the obtained log-likelihood stored in its `logLik` slot.

### Generic function

BIC(object)

### Methods

signature(object=FLModel) :
  BIC of an FLModel object with an specified value for the "penalty".
signature(object=FLModel, k=missing) :
  AIC of an FLModel object for which no value of "penalty" is specified, thus k=2.
