Sequence count data are poorly fit by the negative binomial distribution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Sequence count data are commonly modelled using the negative binomial (NB) distribution. Several empirical studies, however, have demonstrated that methods based on the NB-assumption do not always succeed in controlling the false discovery rate (FDR) at ...

A note on negative λ-binomial distribution [PDF]
Advances in Difference Equations, 2020 In this paper, we introduce one discrete random variable, namely the negative λ-binomial random variable. We deduce the expectation of the negative λ-binomial random variable.

On hypergeometric generalized negative binomial distribution [PDF]
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2002 It is shown that the hypergeometric generalized negative binomial distribution has moments of all positive orders, is overdispersed, skewed to the right, and leptokurtic.

An Exponential-Negative Binomial Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2013 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.

Power laws in preferential attachment graphs and Stein's method for the negative binomial distribution [PDF]
Advances in Applied Probability, 2012 For a family of linear preferential attachment graphs, we provide rates of convergence for the total variation distance between the degree of a randomly chosen vertex and an appropriate power law distribution as the number of vertices tends to ∞.

Use of a negative binomial distribution to describe the presence of Sphyrion laevigatum in Genypterus blacodes [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2013 This paper describes the frequency and number of Sphyrion laevigatum in the skin of Genypterus blacodes, an important economic resource in Chile. The analysis of a spatial distribution model indicated that the parasites tended to cluster.

A weighted negative binomial Lindley distribution with applications to dispersed data
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2018 A new discrete distribution is introduced. The distribution involves the negative binomial and size biased negative binomial distributions as sub-models among others and it is a weighted version of the two parameter discrete Lindley distribution.
