Bayesian Negative Binomial Regression
Bayesian Negative Binomial Regression models non-negative integer count outcomes that exhibit overdispersion — where the variance exceeds the mean — by placing a negative binomial likelihood on the data and specifying prior distributions over the regression coefficients and the dispersion parameter. Posterior inference is typically performed via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) or variational methods, yielding full posterior distributions rather than point estimates.

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
