An Empirical Comparison of Maximum Likelihood and Moment Estimators of Parameters in a Zero-inflated Poisson Model

An Empirical Comparison of Maximum Likelihood and Moment Estimators of Parameters in a Zero-inflated Poisson Model

The zero-inflated Poisson model is discussed in the context of a real life situation. The moment estimators of the parameters in the model are obtained and they are compared with the respective maximum likelihood estimators through simulation.
