Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also

Description

The function is used to obtain the method of moments estimator within the function GVFCMOM. Calculates the expected value of the Visual Fast Count method. The function assumes that the count per segment is Poisson with mean m/s and that segment counts are independent. The expected value is also a function of the number of positives d before segment counting is stopped.
