  2. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution (/ ˈ p w ɑː s ɒ n /) is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. [1]

    Downloadable EXCEL program for the determination of the Most Probable Numbers (MPN), their standard deviations, confidence bounds and rarity values according to Jarvis, B., Wilrich, C., and P.-T. Wilrich: Reconsideration of the derivation of Most Probable Numbers, their standard deviations, confidence bounds and rarity values.

  4. Zero-truncated Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-truncated_Poisson...

    In probability theory, the zero-truncated Poisson distribution (ZTP distribution) is a certain discrete probability distribution whose support is the set of positive integers. This distribution is also known as the conditional Poisson distribution [ 1 ] or the positive Poisson distribution . [ 2 ]

  5. 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. The traditional negative ...

  6. (a,b,0) class of distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(a,b,0)_class_of_distributions

    The (a,b,0) class of distributions is also known as the Panjer, [1] [2] the Poisson-type or the Katz family of distributions, [3] [4] and may be retrieved through the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution. Only the Poisson, binomial and negative binomial distributions satisfy the full form of this

    If you just want one table from a long Excel page, you can select that table from the Calc page. Then copy the table to a new page in Calc. Edit and move columns and rows in Calc. To drag a column first select it by clicking its header number. Then press and hold the ALT key. Then click a data cell, and drag the column to a new location.

  8. Poisson's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_equation

    Poisson's equation is an elliptic partial differential equation of broad utility in theoretical physics. For example, the solution to Poisson's equation is the potential field caused by a given electric charge or mass density distribution; with the potential field known, one can then calculate the corresponding electrostatic or gravitational ...

  9. Compound Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Poisson_distribution

    The shift geometric distribution is discrete compound Poisson distribution since it is a trivial case of negative binomial distribution. This distribution can model batch arrivals (such as in a bulk queue [5] [9]). The discrete compound Poisson distribution is also widely used in actuarial science for modelling the distribution of the total ...
