The powerbend distribution provides a unified model for the species abundance distribution across animals, plants and microbes [PDF]
Remarkably, almost every ecological community investigated to date is composed of many rare species and a few abundant species. While the precise nature of this species abundance distribution is believed to reflect fundamental ecological principles ...

A multivariate Poisson-lognormal regression model for prediction of crash counts by severity, using Bayesian methods [PDF]
Numerous efforts have been devoted to investigating crash occurrence as related to roadway design features, environmental factors and traffic conditions. However, most of the research has relied on univariate count models; that is, traffic crash counts at different levels of severity are estimated separately, which may neglect shared information in ...

In Barcelona, Advanced Stop Lines (ASL) for motorcycles, were implemented since 2009. This paper aims to describe the process followed in determining the best statistical model to analyse the effectiveness of ASL in preventing road traffic injury ...

Bivariate macro-level safety analysis of non-motorized vehicle crashes and crash-involved road users
The high risk of injury resulting from non-motorized vehicle (NMV) crashes has created the goal of using the 3E strategy to comprehensively improve NMV safety.

Bayesian Estimation of Parameters Correlation of Bivariate Poisson Distribution [PDF]
In this study, based on Bayesian Generalized Linear Models, correlation between the parameters of two Poisson distributions was computed. Due to lack of the closed form for posterior distribution, hierarchical Bayesian statistics using the Metropolis ...

In this article we present a class of mixed Poisson regression models with varying dispersion arising from non-conjugate to the Poisson mixing distributions for modelling overdispersed claim counts in non-life insurance.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has constantly exposed health care workers (HCWs) around the world to a high risk of infection. To more accurately discover the infection differences among high-risk occupations and institutions, Hubei Province was taken as an ...

Log-Normal or Over-Dispersed Poisson?
Although both over-dispersed Poisson and log-normal chain-ladder models are popular in claim reserving, it is not obvious when to choose which model. Yet, the two models are obviously different. While the over-dispersed Poisson model imposes the variance

A hierarchical poisson log-normal model for network inference from RNA sequencing data. [PDF]
Gene network inference from transcriptomic data is an important methodological challenge and a key aspect of systems biology. Although several methods have been proposed to infer networks from microarray data, there is a need for inference methods able ...
