Spatial Scan Statistics for Models with Excess Zeros and Overdispersion
Introduction Spatial Scan Statistics [1] usually assume Poisson or Binomial distributed data, which is not adequate in many disease surveillance scenarios. For example, small areas distant from hospitals may exhibit a smaller number of cases than expected in those simple models. Also, underreporting may occur in underdeveloped regions, due to inefficient data collection or the difficulty to acc...
متن کاملModels for count data with many zeros
Poisson regression models provide a standard framework for the analysis of count data. In practice, however, count data are often overdispersed relative to the Poisson distribution. One frequent manifestation of overdispersion is that the incidence of zero counts is greater than expected for the Poisson distribution and this is of interest because zero counts frequently have special status. For...
متن کاملTransition Models for Analyzing Longitudinal Data with Bivariate Mixed Ordinal and Nominal Responses
In many longitudinal studies, nominal and ordinal mixed bivariate responses are measured. In these studies, the aim is to investigate the effects of explanatory variables on these time-related responses. A regression analysis for these types of data must allow for the correlation among responses during the time. To analyze such ordinal-nominal responses, using a proposed weighting approach, an ...
متن کاملHurdle, Inflated Poisson and Inflated Negative Binomial Regression Models for Analysis of Count Data with Extra Zeros
In this paper, we propose Hurdle regression models for analysing count responses with extra zeros. A method of estimating maximum likelihood is used to estimate model parameters. The application of the proposed model is presented in insurance dataset. In this example, there are many numbers of claims equal to zero is considered that clarify the application of the model with a zero-inflat...
