The Poisson Distribution

 Analytics Vidhya

Mylie has been averaging 3 hits for every 10 times at bat. What is the probability that she will get exactly 2 hits in her next 5 times at bat? How do we go about calculating the probability of this…

Exploring the Poisson Distribution

 Towards Data Science

I find probability distributions would often be useful tools to know and understand, but the explanations are not always very intuitive. The Poisson distribution is one of the probability…

Tutorial: Poisson regression with CatBoost

 Towards Data Science

More specifically in our tutorial, we will focus on count-based data where each point is the number of events that have occurred over some fixed time unit t. We will also assume that on average…

Adjust for Overdispersion in Poisson Regression

 Towards Data Science

The Poisson regression model naturally arises when we want to model the average number of occurrences per unit of time or space. For example, the incidence of rare cancer, the number of car crossing…

The Modeling Limitations of Linear Regression Which Poisson Regression Addresses

 Daily Dose of Data Science

Linear regression comes with its own set of challenges/assumptions. For instance: After modeling, the output can be negative for some inputs. But this may not make sense at times — predicting the numb...
