On Zero-Modified Poisson-Sujatha Distribution to Model Overdispersed Count Data

In this paper we propose the zero-modified Poisson-Sujatha distribution as an alternative to model overdispersed count data exhibiting inflation or deflation of zeros. It will be shown that the zero modification can be incorporated by using the zero-truncated Poisson-Sujatha distribution. A simple...
