Poisson distribution

Geometric Poisson distribution

In probability theory and statistics, the geometric Poisson distribution (also called the Pólya–Aeppli distribution) is used for describing objects that come in clusters, where the number of clusters follows a Poisson distribution and the number of objects within a cluster follows a geometric distribution. It is a particular case of the compound Poisson distribution. The probability mass function of a random variable N distributed according to the geometric Poisson distribution is given by where λ is the parameter of the underlying Poisson distribution and θ is the parameter of the geometric distribution. The distribution was described by George Pólya in 1930. Pólya credited his student Alfred Aeppli's 1924 dissertation as the original source. It was called the geometric Poisson distribution by Sherbrooke in 1968, who gave probability tables with a precision of four decimal places. The geometric Poisson distribution has been used to describe systems modelled by a Markov model, such as biological processes or traffic accidents. (Wikipedia).

Statistics - 5.3 The Poisson Distribution

The Poisson distribution is used when we know a mean number of successes to expect in a given interval. We will learn what values we need to know and how to calculate the results for probabilities of exactly one value or for cumulative values. Power Point: https://bellevueuniversity-my

Poisson distribution

The Poisson is a classic distribution used in operational risk. It often fits (describes) random variables over time intervals. For example, it might try to characterize the number of low severity, high frequency (HFLS) loss events over a month or a year. It is a discrete function that con
