  2. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    Examples in which at least one event is guaranteed are not Poisson distributed; but may be modeled using a zero-truncated Poisson distribution. Count distributions in which the number of intervals with zero events is higher than predicted by a Poisson model may be modeled using a zero-inflated model .

  3. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    A discrete power-law distribution, the most famous example of which is the description of the frequency of words in the English language. The Zipf–Mandelbrot law is a discrete power law distribution which is a generalization of the Zipf distribution. Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution Poisson distribution Skellam distribution

  4. 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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    One can compute more precisely, approximating the number of extreme moves of a given magnitude or greater by a Poisson distribution, but simply, if one has multiple 4 standard deviation moves in a sample of size 1,000, one has strong reason to consider these outliers or question the assumed normality of the distribution. For example, a 6σ ...

    Graphs of probability P of not observing independent events each of probability p after n Bernoulli trials vs np for various p.Three examples are shown: Blue curve: Throwing a 6-sided die 6 times gives a 33.5% chance that 6 (or any other given number) never turns up; it can be observed that as n increases, the probability of a 1/n-chance event never appearing after n tries rapidly converges to ...

  7. Poisson scatter theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_scatter_theorem

    The distribution of the number of raindrops falling on 1/5 of the rooftop is Poisson with intensity parameter 2/5. Due to the reproductive property of the Poisson distribution, k independent random scatters on the same region can superimpose to produce a random scatter that follows a poisson distribution with parameter ( λ 1 + λ 2 + ⋯ + λ ...

  9. Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 underdispersion.
