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

If both the Poisson and Binomial distribution are discrete, then why do we need two different distributions?

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?

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 …

To test the Poisson mean, the conditional method was proposed by Przyborowski and Wilenski (1940). The conditional distribution of X1 given X1+X2 follows a binomial distribution whose success …

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 normally distributed …

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...

The Poisson process involves a "memoryless" waiting time until the arrival of the next customer. Suppose the average time from one customer to the next is $\theta$. A memoryless continuous …

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 …

Dec 8, 2023 · The Poisson equation has similar averaging properties to Laplace's equation, however the equalities turn into inequalities. In Laplace's equation, the function is always equal to its spherical …
