We present a unified treatment of different types of one-step M-estimation in regression models which incorporates the Newton–Raphson, method of scoring and iteratively reweighted least squares forms of one-step estimator. We use higher order expansions to distinguish between the different...

This paper describes a flexible method for modelling zero inflated count data which are typically found when trying to model and predict species distributions. Zero inflated data are defined as data that has a larger proportion of zeros than expected from pure count (Poisson) data. The standard...

We discuss models fit to data collected by Duffy and Jorgensen to predict solvation free energies and partition equilibria of drugs, organic molecules, aromatic heterocycles, and other molecules. These data were originally examined using linear regression, but here more recently developed...
