Erkki P. Liski, Simo Puntanen · Canadian Journal of Statistics · 1985

Abstract In many applications, estimates of percentile curves interest investigators more than the mean regression line. We consider the situation where the dependent variable is a compound Poisson variable. Explicit parametric assumptions are made using a linear model for scale and heterogeneous variance. The model is applied to the data on group conversation tests in spoken English.
