A Characterization of the Negative Multinomial Distribution [PDF]
, 1981 This paper deals with a characterization of the negative multinomial distribution. It is based on the assumption that the conditional distribution of two random vectors is multivariate inverse hypergeometric.

A note on a variance bound for the multinomial and the negative multinomial distribution [PDF]
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2014 We prove a Chernoff-type upper variance bound for the multinomial and the negative multinomial distribution. An application is also given.

Bayesian inference for Poisson and multinomial log-linear models [PDF]
, 2009 Categorical data frequently arise in applications in the social sciences. In such applications,the class of log-linear models, based on either a Poisson or (product) multinomial response distribution, is a flexible model class for inference and ...

Masses of Negative Multinomial Distributions: Application to Polarimetric Image Processing [PDF]
Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2013 This paper derives new closed-form expressions for the masses of negative multinomial distributions. These masses can be maximized to determine the maximum likelihood estimator of its unknown parameters. An application to polarimetric image processing is investigated. We study the maximum likelihood estimators of the polarization degree of polarimetric

Multinomial Probability Distribution and Quantum Deformed Algebras [PDF]
, 2023 An examination is conducted on the multinomial coefficients derived from generalized quantum deformed algebras, and on their recurrence relations. The R(p, q)-deformed multinomial probability distribution and the negative R(p, q)-deformed multinomial ...
