A score‐type test for heterogeneity in zero‐inflated models in a stratified population [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2014
AbstractWe propose a score‐type statistic to evaluate heterogeneity in zero‐inflated models for count data in a stratified population, where heterogeneity is defined as instances in which the zero counts are generated from two sources. Evaluating heterogeneity in this class of models has attracted considerable attention in the literature, but existing ...
