Count Processes

Overview


A count process is a model that models a situation where over a predefined time interval, there are a number of events that occur. The model gives the distribution of the number of events.

The typical way to model count data is with the Poisson Distribution.
{% Prob(count = n) = \frac{exp(-\lambda_t) \lambda_t ^n }{n!} %}
