#' @title Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial  Distribution
#' @description
#' A Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial distribution is used for count data that exhibit **both** (a)
#' over-dispersion relative to a Poisson (i.e., variance > mean) *and* (b)
#' an excess of zero counts beyond what a standard Negative Binomial would predict.
#' It assumes two latent processes:

#'  1. With probability \deqn{\pi } (sometimes denoted \deqn{\psi} or "zero-inflation probability")
#'  you are in a "structural zero" state ??? you observe a zero.
#'  2. With probability \deqn{1 - \pi}, you come from a regular Negative Binomial distribution
#'  (with parameters e.g. mean \deqn{\mu} and dispersion parameter \deqn{ \alpha }
#'   or size/r parameter) and then you might observe zero or a positive count.

#'  Thus the model is a mixture of a point-mass at zero + a Negative Binomial for counts.

#'  This distribution combines a Negative Binomial distribution with a binary gate variable. Observations are
#'  either drawn from the Negative Binomial distribution with probability (1 - gate) or are treated as zero with probability 'gate'.
#'
#'   This models data with excess zeros compared to what a standard Negative Binomial distribution would predict.
#' @param mean Numeric or a numeric vector. The mean of the Negative Binomial 2 distribution.
#' @param concentration Numeric or a numeric vector. The concentration parameter of the Negative Binomial 2 distribution.
#' @param gate numeric(1): Probability of extra zeros (between 0 and 1).
#' @param gate_logits numeric(1): Log-odds of extra zeros.
#' @param shape A numeric vector.  A multi-purpose argument for shaping. When `sample=False` (model building),
#'   this is used with `.expand(shape)` to set the distribution's batch shape.
#'   When `sample=True` (direct sampling), this is used as `sample_shape` to draw a raw
#'   JAX array of the given shape.
#' @param event Integer. The number of batch dimensions to reinterpret as event dimensions (used in model building).
#' @param mask Logical vector. Optional boolean array to mask observations.
#' @param create_obj Logical. If `TRUE`, returns the raw NumPyro distribution object instead of creating a sample site.
#'   This is essential for building complex distributions like `MixtureSameFamily`.
#' @param validate_args Logical: Whether to validate parameter values.  Defaults to `reticulate::py_none()`.
#' @param sample A logical value that controls the function's behavior. If `TRUE`,
#'   the function will directly draw samples from the distribution. If `FALSE`,
#'   it will create a random variable within a model. Defaults to `FALSE`.
#' @param seed An integer used to set the random seed for reproducibility when
#'   `sample = TRUE`. This argument has no effect when `sample = FALSE`, as
#'   randomness is handled by the model's inference engine. Defaults to 0.
#' @param obs A numeric vector or array of observed values. If provided, the
#'   random variable is conditioned on these values. If `NULL`, the variable is
#'   treated as a latent (unobserved) variable. Defaults to `NULL`.
#' @param name A character string representing the name of the random variable
#'   within a model. This is used to uniquely identify the variable. Defaults to 'x'.
#' @param to_jax Boolean. Indicates whether to return a JAX array or not.
#'
#' @return
#'  - When \code{sample=FALSE}, a BI Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial distribution object (for model building).
#'
#'  - When \code{sample=TRUE}, a JAX array of samples drawn from the Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial distribution (for direct sampling).
#'
#'  - When \code{create_obj=TRUE}, the raw BI distribution object (for advanced use cases).
