On variance estimation in a negative binomial time series regression model

Variance Estimation in Time Series Regression Models

Estimation of Count Data using Bivariate Negative Binomial Regression Models

Abstract Negative binomial regression model (NBR) is a popular approach for modeling overdispersed count data with covariates. Several parameterizations have been performed for NBR, and the two well-known models, negative binomial-1 regression model (NBR-1) and negative binomial-2 regression model (NBR-2), have been applied. Another parameterization of NBR is negative binomial-P regression mode...

On the bivariate negative binomial regression model

In this paper, a new bivariate negative binomial regression (BNBR) model allowing any type of correlation is defined and studied. The marginal means of the bivariate model are functions of the explanatory variables. The parameters of the bivariate regression model are estimated by using the maximum likelihood method. Some test statistics including goodness-of-fit are discussed. Two numerical da...

A negative binomial model for time series of counts

We study generalized linear models for time series of counts, where serial dependence is introduced through a dependent latent process in the link function. Conditional on the covariates and the latent process, the observation is modelled by a negative binomial distribution. To estimate the regression coefficients, we maximize the pseudolikelihood that is based on a generalized linear model wit...

Negative Binomial Regression Models and Estimation Methods

The Poisson-Gamma model has properties that are very similar to the Poisson model discussed in Appendix C, in which the dependent variable i y is modeled as a Poisson variable with a mean i  where the model error is assumed to follow a Gamma distribution. As it names implies, the Poisson-Gamma is a mixture of two distributions and was first derived by Greenwood and Yule (1920). This mixture di...
