Almost Unbiased Estimation of the Poisson Regression Model

Giles, David E.; Feng, Hui - Department of Economics, University of Victoria - 2009

We derive expressions for the first-order bias of the MLE for a Poisson regression model and show how these can be used …

Distance matters in away games: Evidence from the German Football League

Oberhofer, Harald; Philippovich, Tassilo; Winner, Hannes - Fachbereich Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften, … - 2009

This paper assesses the role of distance in professional team sports, taking the example of football (soccer). We argue that a team’s performance in terms of scored and conceded goals decreases with the distance to the foreign playing venue. To test this hypothesis empirically, we investigate...

A Poisson Regression Examination of the Relationship between Website Traffic and Search Engine Queries

Tierney, Heather L. R.; Pan, Bing - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

A new area of research involves the use of Google data, which has been normalized and scaled to predict economic activity. This new source of data holds both many advantages as well as disadvantages, which are discussed through the use of daily and weekly data. Daily and weekly data are employed...

Multivariate Decomposition for Hazard Rate Models

Powers, Daniel A.; Yun, Myeong-Su - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2009

hazard is specified using a piecewise constant exponential model, which leads to convenient estimation based on a Poisson … regression model fit to person-period, or split-episode data. This specification allows for a flexible representation of the … piecewise constant exponential model, which leads to convenient estimation based on a Poisson regression model fit to person …
