  1. 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.

  2. 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 …

  3. 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 normally distributed …

  4. Relationship between poisson and exponential distribution

    The waiting times for poisson distribution is an exponential distribution with parameter lambda. But I don't understand it. Poisson models the number of arrivals per unit of time for example. How i...

  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 really goo...

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

    Oct 19, 2024 · The Poisson process on R R is called non-homogenous with rate λ(t) λ (t) if its intensity measure has density λ(t) λ (t) (total mass of which might not equal 1, but otherwise it is a density). …

  7. 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) = 47.18182 …

  8. Finding the probability of time between two events for a poisson process

    May 25, 2015 · If two events occur at a rate of 1.8 per hour on average, and this occurrence follows a poisson process, what is the probability that there is at least 1 hour between two events? My …

  9. An intuitive explanation of the Poisson equation?

    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 …

  10. When to use negative binomial and Poisson regression

    Sep 2, 2024 · When would one use a negative binomial regression and when would one use Poisson regression with respect to the mean and variance?
