Characterizing the performance of the Conway-Maxwell Poisson generalized linear model.
Count data are pervasive in many areas of risk analysis; deaths, adverse health outcomes, infrastructure system failures, and traffic accidents are all recorded as count events, for example. Risk analysts often wish to estimate the probability distribution for the number of discrete events as part of doing a risk assessment. Traditional count data regression models of the type often used in ris...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Performance of the Bayesian Conway-maxwell Poisson Generalized Linear Model
This paper documents the performance of a Bayesian Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (COM-Poisson) generalized linear model (GLM). This distribution was originally developed as an extension of the Poisson distribution in 1962 and has a unique characteristic, in that it can handle both under-dispersed and over-dispersed count data. Previous work by the authors lead to the development of a dual-link GLM bas...

متن کاملApplication of the Conway-Maxwell-Poisson generalized linear model for analyzing motor vehicle crashes.
This paper documents the application of the Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (COM-Poisson) generalized linear model (GLM) for modeling motor vehicle crashes. The COM-Poisson distribution, originally developed in 1962, has recently been re-introduced by statisticians for analyzing count data subjected to over- and under-dispersion. This innovative distribution is an extension of the Poisson distribution. ...
متن کاملApproximating the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution normalization constant
By adding a second parameter, Conway and Maxwell created a new distribution for situations where data deviate from the standard Poisson distribution. This new distribution contains a normalization constant expressed as an infinite sum whose summation has no known closed-form expression. Shmueli et al. produced an approximation for this sum but proved only that it was valid for integer values of...
