Quantile regression for overdispersed count data: a hierarchical method
Generalized Poisson regression is commonly applied to overdispersed count data, and focused on modelling the conditional mean of the response. However, conditional mean regression models may be sensitive to response outliers and provide no information on other conditional distribution features of the response. We consider instead a hierarchical approach to quantile regression of overdispersed c...
متن کاملDirichlet negative multinomial regression for overdispersed correlated count data
A generic random effects formulation for the Dirichlet negative multinomial distribution is developed together with a convenient regression parameterization. A simulation study indicates that, even when somewhat misspecified, regression models based on the Dirichlet negative multinomial distribution have smaller median absolute error than generalized estimating equations, with a particularly pr...
متن کاملOn Hinde-Demetrio Regression Models for Overdispersed Count Data
In this paper we introduce the Hinde-Demétrio (HD) regression models for analyzing overdispersed count data and, mainly, investigate the e¤ect of dispersion parameter. The HD distributions are discrete additive exponential dispersion models (depending on canonical and dispersion parameters) with a third real index parameter p and have been characterized by its unit variance function + p. For p ...
متن کاملQuantile Regression for Longitudinal Data
The penalized least squares interpretation of the classical random effects estimator suggests a possible way forward for quantile regression models with a large number of “fixed effects”. The introduction of a large number of individual fixed effects can significantly inflate the variability of estimates of other covariate effects. Regularization, or shrinkage of these individual effects toward...
متن کاملOn the EM algorithm for overdispersed count data.
In this paper, we consider the use of the EM algorithm for the fitting of distributions by maximum likelihood to overdispersed count data. In the course of this, we also provide a review of various approaches that have been proposed for the analysis of such data. As the Poisson and binomial regression models, which are often adopted in the first instance for these analyses, are particular examp...
