Math Kitchen Party: organized by Danielle Cox (Mount Saint Vincent)
Zoom seminarModelling correlated count data-can I delete the zeroes? Gary Sneddon (Mount Saint Vincent) Correlated count data with excess zeroes arise in a number of applications. We will discuss 3 motivating examples, and some approaches to modelling these type of data.
