Approximating 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...
متن کاملBivariate Conway-Maxwell-Poisson distribution: Formulation, properties, and inference
The bivariate Poisson distribution is a popular distribution for modeling bivariate count data. Its basic assumptions and marginal equi-dispersion, however, may prove limiting in some contexts. To allow for data dispersion, we develop here a bivariate Conway–Maxwell–Poisson (COM–Poisson) distribution that includes the bivariate Poisson, bivariate Bernoulli, and bivariate geometric distributions...
متن کاملExtended Conway-Maxwell-Poisson distribution and its properties and applications
A new four parameter extended Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (ECOMP) distribution which unifies the recently proposed COM-Poisson type negative binomial (COM-NB) distribution [Chakraborty, S. and Ong, S. H. (2014): A COM-type Generalization of the Negative Binomial Distribution, Accepted in Communications in Statistics-Theory and Methods] and the generalized COM-Poisson (GCOMP) distribution [Imoto, T. ...
متن کاملA useful distribution for fitting discrete data: revival of the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution
A useful discrete distribution (the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution) is revived and its statistical and probabilistic properties are introduced and explored. This distribution is a two-parameter extension of the Poisson distribution that generalizes some well-known discrete distributions (Poisson, Bernoulli and geometric). It also leads to the generalization of distributions derived from th...
متن کاملCharacterizing 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...
