    • Bioassay models with natural mortality and random effects 

      Hinde, John (2011)
      In fitting dose-response models to entomological data it is often necessary to take account of natural mortality and/or overdispersion. The standard approach to handle natural mortality is to use Abbott¿s formula. Standard ...

    • Models for overdispersed data in entomology 

      Demétrio, Clarice G. B.; Hinde, John; Moral, Rafael A. (Springer, Cham, 2014-09-17)
      Entomological data are often overdispersed, characterised by a larger variance than assumed by simple standard models. It is important to model overdispersion properly in order to avoid incorrect and misleading inferences. ...
