Neurons transmit information with sequences of action potentials. These responses are variable—repeated measurements under identical experimental conditions give different spike trains—but the origins ...

Some expections of functions of the sample mean and variance of Poisson variates are presented. Results of a computer study also appear. Journal Information Biometrics is a scientific journal ...

For binomial and Poisson distributions, the scale parameter has a value of 1. The variance of Y is for the binomial distribution and for the Poisson distribution. Overdispersion occurs when the ...

a linear function of explanatory variables. For this example, the function is a link function that relates the mean to the linear function of explanatory variables. For this example, the link function ...
