The Conway-Maxwell-Poisson distribution: distributional theory and approximation
- Abstract:
-
The Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (CMP) distribution is a natural twoparameter generalisation of the Poisson distribution which has received some attention in the statistics literature in recent years by offering flexible generalisations of some well-known models. In this work, we begin by establishing some properties of both the CMP distribution and an analogous generalisation of the binomial distribution, which we refer to as the CMB distribution. We also consider some convergence results and appr...
