negativeBinomial

negativeBinomial(mu: number, dispersion: number) 🡒 ranvar, pure function

Returns the negative binomial distribution of mean mu and of dispersion d. The dispersion is the ratio between the variance and the mean: $d = \frac{\sigma^2}{\mu}$. The dispersion should be greater than one.

negativeBinomial(mu: number, dispersion: number, zeroInflation: number) 🡒 ranvar, pure function

Overload of the negativeBinomial function, that returns the negative binomial distribution inflated in zero. It is the mixture between a dirac in 0 (with a weight equal to the zeroInflation) and the negative binomial of mean mu and of dispersion d (with a weight equal to 1-zeroInflation). zeroInflation should be in the range $[0, 1]$.
