The article develops a semiparametric estimation method for the bivariate count data regression model. We develop a series expansion approach in which dependence between count variables is introduced ...

Understanding how species distributions respond as a function of environmental gradients is a key question in ecology, and will benefit from a multi-species approach. Multi-species data are often high ...

In this module, we will introduce the basic conceptual framework for statistical modeling in general, and linear statistical models in particular. In this module, we will learn how to fit linear ...
