Count Regression Models Based on the Bell Distribution
Overview
Bell regression models for count data with overdispersion. The implemented models account for ordinary and zero-inflated regression models under both frequentist and Bayesian approaches. Theoretical details regarding the models implemented in the package can be found in Castellares et al. (2018) doi:10.1016/j.apm.2017.12.014 and Lemonte et al. (2020) doi:10.1080/02664763.2019.1636940.
