  2. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio. In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio ν (nu) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading. The value of Poisson's ratio is the negative of the ratio of transverse strain to axial strain.

  3. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    A discrete random variable X is said to have a Poisson distribution, with parameter if it has a probability mass function given by: [2]: 60 where k is the number of occurrences ( k = 0 , 1 , 2 , … {\displaystyle k=0,1,2,\ldots } ) e is Euler's number ( e = 2.71828 … {\displaystyle e=2.71828\ldots } ) k! = k (k– 1) ··· (3) (2) (1) is the factorial. The positive real number λ is equal ...

  4. Poisson regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_regression

    A Poisson regression model is sometimes known as a log-linear model, especially when used to model contingency tables. Negative binomial regression is a popular generalization of Poisson regression because it loosens the highly restrictive assumption that the variance is equal to the mean made by the Poisson model.

  5. Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    Conway–Maxwell–Poisson. In probability theory and statistics, the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson (CMP or COM–Poisson) distribution is a discrete probability distribution named after Richard W. Conway, William L. Maxwell, and Siméon Denis Poisson that generalizes the Poisson distribution by adding a parameter to model overdispersion and ...

  7. Poisson point process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_point_process

    A Cox point process, Cox process or doubly stochastic Poisson process is a generalization of the Poisson point process by letting its intensity measure to be also random and independent of the underlying Poisson process.

    On the Indian subcontinent, Islam first appeared in the southwestern tip of the peninsula, in today's Kerala state. Arabs traded with Malabar even before the birth of Muhammad. Native legends say that a group of Sahaba, under Malik Ibn Deenar, arrived on the Malabar Coast and preached Islam.
