  1. probability - Distribution of Event Times in a Poisson Process ...

    Sep 5, 2024 · Normally, everyone talks about the distribution of interarrival times in a Poisson Process are Exponential ... but what about the distribution of the actual event times?

  2. An intuitive explanation of the Poisson equation?

    Dec 8, 2023 · Poisson Equation: The Poisson equation, $$\nabla^2 u = f$$, describes how a scalar function (u) changes in response to a given "influence" represented by (f). It's like describing how a …

  3. r - Rule of thumb for deciding between Poisson and negative binomal ...

    Nov 6, 2023 · The Poisson distribution implies so a one-sample test can provide a P -value for testing Poisson vs. negative binomial. Another test for equidispersion is the Lagrange Multiplier which …

  4. Why is Poisson regression used for count data? - Cross Validated

    Oct 4, 2013 · Poisson distributed data is intrinsically integer-valued, which makes sense for count data. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS, which you call "linear regression") assumes that true values are …

  5. probability - When to use Binomial Distribution vs. Poisson ...

    Dec 11, 2014 · Poisson distribution a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time and/or space if these events occur with a …

  6. How to calculate a confidence level for a Poisson distribution?

  7. Relationship between poisson and exponential distribution

    Note, that a poisson distribution does not automatically imply an exponential pdf for waiting times between events. This only accounts for situations in which you know that a poisson process is at …

  8. Poisson or quasi poisson in a regression with count data and ...

    I have count data (demand/offer analysis with counting number of customers, depending on - possibly - many factors). I tried a linear regression with normal errors, but my QQ-plot is not really goo...

  9. Continuous Poisson Distribution - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 25, 2021 · There are different types of continuous extensions of Poisson distribution. I favor the one presented in this paper: "Continuous counterparts of Poisson and binomial distributions and their …

  10. Why Specifically Use Poisson Regression For Count Data?

    Sep 8, 2022 · Why should Poisson Regression be used for Count Data instead of a "vanilla linear regression"? I understand the basic argument : Count Data is by definition discrete and you would …
