An improved bound for negative binomial approximation with -functions
In this article, we use Stein’s method together with -functions to give an improved bound for the total variation distance between the distribution of a non-negative integer-valued random variable and the negative binomial distribution with parameters ...

An Exponential-Negative Binomial Distribution
A new three-parameter distribution is proposed for modeling lifetime data. It is advocated as most reasonable among the many exponential mixture type distributions proposed in recent years.

Early warning and predicting of COVID-19 using zero-inflated negative binomial regression model and negative binomial regression model [PDF]
Background It is difficult to detect the outbreak of emergency infectious disease based on the exiting surveillance system. Here we investigate the utility of the Baidu Search Index, an indicator of how large of a keyword is in Baidu’s search volume, in ...

A Bivariate Model based on Compound Negative Binomial Distribution
A new bivariate model is introduced by compounding negative binomial and geometric distributions. Distributional properties, including joint, marginal and conditional distributions are discussed.

Double Generalized Beta-Binomial and Negative Binomial Regression Models
Overdispersion is a common phenomenon in count datasets, that can greatly affect inferences about the model. In this paper develop three joint mean and dispersion regression models in order to fit overdispersed data.

Negative Binomial Matrix Factorization [PDF]
We introduce negative binomial matrix factorization (NBMF), a matrix factorization technique specially designed for analyzing over-dispersed count data. It can be viewed as an extension of Poisson factorization (PF) perturbed by a multiplicative term which models exposure. This term brings a degree of freedom for controlling the dispersion, making NBMF

Negative Binomial Additive Models [PDF]
Summary.The generalized additive model is extended to handle negative binomial responses. The extension is complicated by the fact that the negative binomial distribution has two parameters and is not in the exponential family. The methodology is applied to data involving DNA adduct counts and smoking variables among ex‐smokers with lung cancer. A more

The Negative $q$-Binomial [PDF]
Interpretations for the $q$-binomial coefficient evaluated at $-q$ are discussed. A $(q,t)$-version is established, including an instance of a cyclic sieving phenomenon involving unitary spaces.

The negative binomial-weighted Lindley distribution [PDF]
This paper proposes a new distribution named the negative binomial-weighted Lindley. The study uses the maximum likelihood estimation to estimate the parameters of the proposed distribution and compares the performance of the new method with other ...
