Hi, When modeling with negbin from the aod package, parameters for a given count
y | lambda~Poisson(lambda) with lambda following a Gamma distribution Gamma(r, theta) are estimated. The intercept is called phi. Some other parameters may be also be estimated from factors in the data: the estimates returned for all these would be in accordance with the Value listing in the negbin entry in the aod reference pdf, that is, they are objects "of formal class "glimML"", that is they are maximum likelihood estimates. Would someone tell me if I'm correct? regards, shfets ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
