We consider the analysis of count data in which the observed frequency of zero counts is unusually large, typically with respect to the Poisson distribution. We focus on two alternative modelling approaches: Over-Dispersion (OD) models, and…
Tensor factorizations (TF) are powerful tools for the efficient representation and analysis of multidimensional data. However, classic TF methods based on maximum likelihood estimation underperform when applied to zero-inflated count data,…
Count data with an excessive number of zeros frequently arise in fields such as economics, medicine, and public health. Traditional count models often fail to adequately handle such data, especially when the relationship between the…
Weighted networks encode not only the presence of interactions but also their strength. Existing methods for weighted network community detection often rely on Poisson models, which can be restrictive for overdispersed data and make…
Zero inflation is a common nuisance while monitoring disease progression over time. This article proposes a new observation driven model for zero inflated and over-dispersed count time series. The counts given the past history of the…
The disaggregated time-series for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) often exhibits exact zero price changes, stemming from structural features of the data collection process. However, the currently prominent stochastic volatility model of…
Zero-inflated regression models have had wide application recently and have provenuseful in modeling data with many zeros. Zero-inflated Binomial (ZIB) regression model is an extension of the ordinary binomial distribution that takes into…
This paper proposes a method for analyzing count time series with inflation or deflation of zeros. In particular, zero-modified Poisson and zero-modified negative binomial series with intensities generated by non-negative Markov sequences…
Understanding the association between dietary patterns and health outcomes, such as the cancer risk, is crucial to inform public health guidelines and shaping future dietary interventions. However, dietary intake data present several…
Background: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful profiling technique at the single-cell resolution. Appropriate analysis of scRNA-seq data can characterize molecular heterogeneity and shed light into the underlying cellular…
Single-cell transcriptomic data approximates the abundance of proteins at a high resolution, but its noisiness necessitates transformation by a pipeline of methods before analysis and inference. In the absence of robust validation of these…
In this work we apply several Poisson and zero-inflated models for software defect prediction. We apply different functions from several R packages such as pscl, MASS, R2Jags and the recent glmmTMB. We test the functions using the Equinox…
This article introduces a k-Inflated Negative Binomial mixture distribution/regression model as a more flexible alternative to zero-inflated Poisson distribution/regression model. An EM algorithm has been employed to estimate the model's…
Standard count models such as the Poisson and Negative Binomial models often fail to capture the large proportion of zero claims commonly observed in insurance data. To address such issue of excessive zeros, zero-inflated and hurdle models…
We consider three new classes of exponential dispersion models of discrete probability distributions which are defined by specifying their variance functions in their mean value parameterization. In a previous paper (Bar-Lev and Ridder,…
In this paper, we investigate right-truncated count data models incorporating cavariates into the parameters. A regression method is proposed to model right-truncated count data exibiting high heterogeneity. The study encompasses the…
