  2. Activity-based costing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity-based_costing

    Activity-based costing was first clearly defined in 1987 by Robert S. Kaplan and W. Bruns as a chapter in their book Accounting and Management: A Field Study Perspective. [8] They initially focused on manufacturing industry where increasing technology and productivity improvements have reduced the relative proportion of the direct costs of ...

  3. Zero-inflated model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-inflated_model

    One well-known zero-inflated model is Diane Lambert's zero-inflated Poisson model, which concerns a random event containing excess zero-count data in unit time. [8] For example, the number of insurance claims within a population for a certain type of risk would be zero-inflated by those people who have not taken out insurance against the risk ...

  4. Poisson-type random measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson-type_random_measure

    Poisson-type random measures are a family of three random counting measures which are closed under restriction to a subspace, i.e. closed under thinning. They are the only distributions in the canonical non-negative power series family of distributions to possess this property and include the Poisson distribution, negative binomial distribution, and binomial distribution. [1]

  5. Poisson random measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_random_measure

    The Poisson random measure with intensity measure is a family of random variables {} defined on some probability space (,,) such that i) ∀ A ∈ A , N A {\displaystyle \forall A\in {\mathcal {A}},\quad N_{A}} is a Poisson random variable with rate μ ( A ) {\displaystyle \mu (A)} .

  6. Poisson point process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_point_process

    A visual depiction of a Poisson point process starting. In probability theory, statistics and related fields, a Poisson point process (also known as: Poisson random measure, Poisson random point field and Poisson point field) is a type of mathematical object that consists of points randomly located on a mathematical space with the essential feature that the points occur independently of one ...

  7. Poisson regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_regression

    In statistics, Poisson regression is a generalized linear model form of regression analysis used to model count data and contingency tables. [1] Poisson regression assumes the response variable Y has a Poisson distribution, and assumes the logarithm of its expected value can be modeled by a linear combination of unknown parameters.

    Poisson process, an example of a jump process; Continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC), an example of a jump process and a generalization of the Poisson process; Counting process, an example of a jump process and a generalization of the Poisson process in a different direction than that of CTMCs; Interacting particle system, an example of a jump ...

  9. 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.
