  1. 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 …

  2. Why is Poisson regression used for count data?

    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 …

  3. probability - Cumulative Distribution function of a Poisson ...

    Sep 18, 2019 · This is because the CDF of Poisson distribution is related to that of a Gamma distribution. Hence the incomplete gamma function.

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

    Sep 5, 2024 · I am trying to learn how to prove the following: if we know k k events occurred in a Poisson process between times t1 t 1 and t2 t 2, the exact times of these events are uniformly …

  5. 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 …

  6. spss - Difference between binomial, negative binomial and Poisson ...

    I am looking for some information about the difference between binomial, negative binomial and Poisson regression and for which situations are these regression best fitted.

  7. What is the relationship between poisson, gamma, and …

    Jun 26, 2015 · Poisson and exponential distributions are very strongly related but they're fundamentally different because the Poisson is discrete (a count variable) and the exponential …

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

    Would like to know how confident I can be in my λ λ. Anyone know of a way to set upper and lower confidence levels for a Poisson distribution? Observations (n n) = 88 Sample mean (λ λ) …

  9. How to prove Poisson Distribution is the approximation of …

    May 22, 2016 · An important property of the Poisson random variable is that it may be used to approximate a binomial random variable when the binomial parameter n n is large and p p is …

  10. How does Poisson thinning work? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 19, 2024 · The Poisson process on $\mathbb {R}$ is called non-homogenous with rate $\lambda (t)$ if its intensity measure has density $\lambda (t)$ (total mass of which might not …
