R Documentation

Fitting of EPPM models to count and binary data.

Description

Fits regression models to under- and over-dispersed count data using extended Poisson process models.

Details

Package:	CountsEPPM
Type:	Package
Version:	2.1
Date:	2016-03-04
License:	GPL-2

Using Generalized Linear Model (GLM) terminology, the functions utilize linear predictors for mean and variance with log link functions to fit the regression models. Smith and Faddy (2016) gives further details about the package as well as examples of its use.
