One-inflation and unobserved heterogeneity in population size estimation by Ryan T. Godwin.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we would like to show that the one-inflated zero-truncated negative binomial (OIZTNB) regression model can be easily implemented in R via built-in functions when we use mean-parameterization feature of negative binomial distribution to build OIZTNB regression model. From the practitioners' point of view, we believe that this approach presents a computationally convenient way for implementation of the OIZTNB regression model.
