Bayesian inference on quasi-sparse count data
Bayesian inference on quasi-sparse count data
There is growing interest in analysing high-dimensional count data, which often exhibit quasi-sparsity corresponding to an overabundance of zeros and small nonzero counts. Existing methods for analysing multivariate count data via Poisson or negative binomial log-linear hierarchical models with zero-inflation cannot flexibly adapt to quasi-sparse settings. We develop a new …
