Consistency and asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator in a zero-inflated generalized Poisson regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Poisson regression models for count variables have been utilized in many applications. However, in many problems overdispersion and zero-inflation occur.

Monitoring Changes in Sperm Concentration and Quality Help Improve Captive Breeding Outcomes of the Endangered Amphibian Rawlinsonia littlejohni

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amphibians are among the most threatened taxonomic groups, with many species experiencing rapid declines that have resulted in small, isolated populations vulnerable to inbreeding depression and reduced fertility. One major outcome of inbreeding is lowered fecundity, often linked to morphological changes in gametes.

Contrasting Heatwave Regimes in Dry and Humid Subtropical Mexico: A Station‐Based Probabilistic Assessment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Heatwaves have intensified under a warming climate, producing substantial environmental and societal impacts. This study characterizes heatwave regimes in two contrasting regions of Mexico using a percentile‐based threshold and a Poisson distribution framework.

Models for Overdispersed Data in Entomology

open access: yes, 2014
Entomological data are often overdispersed, characterised by a larger variance than assumed by simple standard models. It is important to model overdispersion properly in order to avoid incorrect and misleading inferences. Outcomes of interest are often in the form of counts or proportions and we present extended models that incorporate overdispersion,

Modelling Heteroskedasticity, Overdispersion and the Impacts of Climate Change for Long-Term Hay Yield Data

open access: yes, 2022
Non-constant residuals, also known as heteroskedastic errors, are a common challenge in statistical modelling. One common method for coping with heteroskedastic errors for non-negative data is through the use of a Gamma likelihood function, often with ...

Post‐surgical infections: Prevalence associated with various periodontal surgical procedures

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This retrospective study aimed to assess the prevalence of postoperative infections after periodontal and implant surgical therapy and examined the treatment variables that may affect infection prevalence. Methods A retrospective review on patients who were surgically treated in the graduate periodontics clinic at the University of ...

Comparison Between Two Multinomial Overdispersion Models Through Simulation

open access: yes, 2020
A key assumption when using the multinomial distribution is that the observations are independent. In many practical situations, the observations could be correlated or clustered and the probabilities within each cluster might vary, which may lead to ...

A Comparison of the Robust Zero-Inflated and Hurdle Models with an Application to Maternal Mortality

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications
This study evaluates the performance of count regression models in the presence of zero inflation, outliers, and overdispersion using both simulated and real-world maternal mortality dataset.

ANALISIS FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI BANYAKNYA KLAIM ASURANSI KENDARAAAN BERMOTOR MENGGUNAKAN MODEL REGRESI ZERO-INFLATED POISSON (Studi Kasus di PT. Asuransi Sinar Mas Cabang Semarang Tahun 2010)

open access: yesMedia Statistika, 2012
Poisson regression is one of model that is often used to model the relationship between response variables in the form of discrete data with a set of predictor variables in the form of continuous, discrete, category, or mixture data.

New constraints on the postglacial evolution of Lago Maggiore, Northern Italy

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lago Maggiore is situated in an overdeepened valley reach at the southern margin of the European Alps, and its thick sediment infill allows the reconstruction of the postglacial valley and lake evolution. We study here the sedimentary succession in the lower Ossola Valley, which is infilled by ~500 m of deposits. In a marginal position, a core
