Introduction to Poisson Regression
 It assumes that the data or output variable follows Poisson distribution
 Poisson distribution takes values from 0 to infinity
 We go for Poisson Regression when Variance = Mean = ƛ
 Output variable - Y is Count/Defect (Discrete)
 Input variable - X can take any value
Examples of Poisson Regression
Example 1. The number of persons killed by mule or horse kicks in the
Prussian army per year. Ladislaus Bortkiewicz collected data from 20
volumes of Preussischen Statistik. These data were collected on 10
corps of the Prussian army in the late 1800s over the course of 20 years.
Example 2. The number of people in line in front of you at the grocery
store. Predictors may include the number of items currently offered at a
special discounted price and whether a special event (e.g., a holiday, a
big sporting event) is three or fewer days away.
Example 3. The number of awards earned by students at one high
school. Predictors of the number of awards earned include the type of
program in which the student was enrolled (e.g., vocational, general or
academic) and the score on their final exam in math.
Description of the data
In this example, num_awards is the outcome variable and indicates the
number of awards earned by students at a high school in a year, math is a
continuous predictor variable and represents students’ scores on their math
final exam, and prog is a categorical predictor variable with three levels
indicating the type of program in which the students were enrolled. It is
coded as 1 = “General”, 2 = “Academic” and 3 = “Vocational”.
