ZIP2: Zero inflated poisson distribution for fitting a GAMLSS model

In Stan125/gamlss.dist: Distributions for Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape

Description

The function ZIP2 defines the zero inflated Poisson type 2 distribution, a two parameter distribution, for a gamlss.family object to be used in GAMLSS fitting using the function gamlss(). The functions dZIP2, pZIP2, qZIP2 and rZIP2 define the density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the inflated poisson, ZIP2(), distribution. The ZIP2 is a different parameterization of the ZIP distribution. In the ZIP2 the mu is the mean of the distribution.

Usage

ZIP2(mu.link = "log", sigma.link = "logit")
dZIP2(x, mu = 5, sigma = 0.1, log = FALSE)
pZIP2(q, mu = 5, sigma = 0.1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qZIP2(p, mu = 5, sigma = 0.1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rZIP2(n, mu = 5, sigma = 0.1)

Arguments

mu.link	defines the mu.link, with "log" link as the default for the mu parameter
sigma.link	defines the sigma.link, with "logit" link as the default for the sigma parameter which in this case is the probability at zero. Other links are "probit" and "cloglog"'(complementary log-log)
x	vector of (non-negative integer) quantiles
mu	vector of positive means
sigma	vector of probabilities at zero
p	vector of probabilities
q	vector of quantiles
n	number of random values to return
log, log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p)
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X <= x], otherwise, P[X > x]

Details

Let Y=0 with probability σ and Po(mu/(1-sigma)) with probability (1-σ) then Y has a Zero inflated Poisson type 2 distribution given by

sigma+(1-sigma)e^(-(mu/(1-sigma))) if y=0

f(y)=(1-sigma)exp(-(mu/(1-sigma)))* (mu/(1-sigma))^y/y! if y=0,1,2,...

The mean of the distribution in this parameterization is mu.

Value

returns a gamlss.family object which can be used to fit a zero inflated poisson distribution in the gamlss() function.
