Die Arbeit umfaßt die Darstellung und Anwendung von Regressionsmodellen für Zähldaten, deren abhängige Variable nur nichtnegative ganzzahlige Werte annehmen kann. Die Spezifikationen des Poisson- und des NegBin 2-Modells mit den zugehörigen Schätzverfahren und Beurteilungskriterien werden...

Variable and model selection problems are fundamental to high-dimensional statistical modeling in diverse fields of sciences. Especially in health studies, many potential factors are usually introduced to determine an outcome variable. This paper deals with the problem of high-dimensional...

Despite a number of significant advances in count data modeling during the last two decades and the growing popularity of these models in recreation demand analysis, standard count data models are inadequate to address the fast decay process of the dependent variable and the associated long...
