  <dc:title>Zero-Inflated Models for Count Time Series with Excess Zeros</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package ZIM version 1.1.2</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: TimeSeries (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=TimeSeries)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>Analyze count time series with excess zeros. 
    Two types of statistical models are supported: Markov regression by Yang et al.
    (2013) &lt;doi:10.1016/j.stamet.2013.02.001&gt; and state-space models by Yang et al. 
    (2015) &lt;doi:10.1177/1471082X14535530&gt;. They are also known as observation-driven and 
    parameter-driven models respectively in the time series literature. The functions used for 
    Markov regression or observation-driven models can also be used to fit ordinary regression models 
    with independent data under the zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) or zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) 
    assumption. Besides, the package contains some miscellaneous functions to compute density, distribution, 
    quantile, and generate random numbers from ZIP and ZINB distributions.</dc:description>
