A Simple Method for Estimating Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple and quick method of estimating the parameters of the Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution (GNBD) has been suggested. A Monte Carlo technique has been applied to study the unbiasedness and the efficiency of the estimates so obtained. Using this method of estimation the GNBD has been fitted to some observed data and the fits have been found quite satisfactory.

The Negative Binomial Distribution Efficiency in Finite Mixture of Semi-parametric Generalized Linear Models
Introduction Selection the appropriate statistical model for the response variable is one of the most important problem in the finite mixture of generalized linear models. One of the distributions which it has a problem in a finite mixture of semi-parametric generalized statistical models, is the Poisson distribution. In this paper, to overcome over dispersion and computational burden, finite ...
متن کاملSome Representations and Specifications of the Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution
Abstract: In a sequence of dependent Bernoulli trials, the distribution of the number of trials required to obtain r successes, Vr, is called a Generalized Negative Binomial (GNB) distribution. We present a simple representation of this distribution based on moments and consider the conditions under which a GNB distribution follows negative binomial distribution. Also we study the properties of...
متن کاملEstimation in Simple Step-Stress Model for the Marshall-Olkin Generalized Exponential Distribution under Type-I Censoring
This paper considers the simple step-stress model from the Marshall-Olkin generalized exponential distribution when there is time constraint on the duration of the experiment. The maximum likelihood equations for estimating the parameters assuming a cumulative exposure model with lifetimes as the distributed Marshall Olkin generalized exponential are derived. The likelihood equations do not lea...
متن کاملReliability Estimates of Generalized Poisson Distribution and Generalized Geometric Series Distribution
Discrete distributions have played an important role in the reliability theory. In order to obtain Bayes estimators, researchers have adopted various conventional techniques. Generalizing the results of Maiti (1995), Chaturvadi and Tomer (2002) dealt with the problem of estimating P{X1, X2, …, Xk ≤ Y}, where random variables X and Y were assumed to follow a negative binomial distribution. Agit ...
متن کاملEstimating the Dispersion Parameter of the Negative Binomial Distribution for Analyzing Crash Data Using a Bootstrapped Maximum Likelihood Method
The objective of this study is to improve the estimation of the dispersion parameter of the negative binomial distribution for modeling motor vehicle collisions. The negative binomial distribution is widely used to model count data such as traffic crash data, which often exhibit low sample mean values and small sample sizes. Under such situations, the most commonly used methods for estimating t...
