Pooling overdispersed binomial data to estimate event rate
BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2008 Background The beta-binomial model is one of the methods that can be used to validly combine event rates from overdispersed binomial data. Our objective is to provide a full description of this method and to update and broaden its applications in ...

Modeling microbial abundances and dysbiosis with beta-binomial regression
The Annals of Applied Statistics, 2020 Using a sample from a population to estimate the proportion of the population with a certain category label is a broadly important problem. In the context of microbiome studies, this problem arises when researchers wish to use a sample from a population of microbes to estimate the population proportion of a particular taxon, known as the taxon's ...

A Bayesian Approach for Estimating Twin Similarity with Respect to a Binary Trait Under the Beta-Binomial Model [PDF]
The Egyptian Statistical Journal, 2011 In twin studies there is a need to compare a sample of monozygotic to another independent sample of dizygotic twins with respect to the presence or absence of a specific disease or condition.

Performance of the Beta-Binomial Model for Clustered Binary Responses: Comparison with Generalized Estimating Equations [PDF]
, 2021 This study examined performance of the beta-binomial model in comparison with GEE using clustered binary responses resulting in non-normal outcomes. Monte Carlo simulations were performed under varying intracluster correlations and sample sizes.

Models for Underreporting: A Bernoulli Sampling Approach for Reported Counts
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 Underreporting in register systems can be analyzed using a binomial approach, where both the size and the probability parameter have to be estimated. Parameter estimation fails when overdispersion is present.

Exact Posterior distribution of risk ratio in the Kumaraswamy–Binomial model
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, 2023 In categorical data analysis, the $2\times 2$ contingency tables are commonly used to assess the association between groups and responses, this is achieved by using some measures of association, such as the contingency coefficient, odds ratio, risk ...

Using beta binomials to estimate classification uncertainty for ensemble models [PDF]
Journal of Cheminformatics, 2014 Quantitative structure-activity (QSAR) models have enormous potential for reducing drug discovery and development costs as well as the need for animal testing. Great strides have been made in estimating their overall reliability, but to fully realize that potential, researchers and regulators need to know how confident they can be in individual ...

PLoS ONE, 2019 Current methods to quantify T-cell clonal expansion only account for variance due to random sampling from a highly diverse repertoire space. We propose a beta-binomial model to incorporate time-dependent variance into the assessment of differentially ...
