A Statistical Model for Count Data Analysis and Population Size Estimation: Introducing a Mixed Poisson–Lindley Distribution and Its Zero Truncation

Count data consists of both observed and unobserved events. The analysis of count data often encounters overdispersion, where traditional Poisson models may not be adequate. In this paper, we introduce a tractable one-parameter mixed Poisson distribution, which combines the Poisson distribution with...
