[R-sig-ME] zero-inflated counts

[BXC (Bendix Carstensen)]

Byju,

If you look at Jim Lindsay's gnlm package at:
http://popgen.unimaas.nl/~jlindsey/rcode.html
you will find possibilities there.

The piece of code I used was something like:

pmod <- fmr( help1, dist="negative binomial",
             linear = ~ if.ddur + neuro + macro + ARB + ins1d + smoke,
                 mu =~exp(linear),
                pmu = rep(0,7),
                mix = ~ imp.aw + married + insdur + hypert + if.ddur,
               pmix = rep(0,8),
             pshape = 0 )

Hope this helps.
You can of course also use the Poisson distribution.

Best regards,
Bendix

Dear R users,

 Is gmmlAMDB the only option available to do mixed effect modelling for zero
inflated count data in R. Or does there exist any other option.

Thank you
 Byju
