poisreg {micsr}

Poisson regression

Description

A unified interface to perform Poisson, Negbin and log-normal Poisson models

Usage

poisreg(
  formula,
  data,
  weights,
  subset,
  na.action,
  offset,
  start = NULL,
  mixing = c("none", "gamma", "lognorm"),
  method = c("bfgs", "newton"),
  vlink = c("nb1", "nb2"),
  ...
)

Arguments

formula

a symbolic description of the model, (for the count component and for the selection equation)

data

subset, weights, na.action, offset

see stats::lm,

start

a vector of starting values

mixing

the mixing distribution, one of "none", "gamma" and "lognorm"

method

the optimization method, one of "newton" and "bfgs"

vlink

one of "nb1" and "nb2"
