“…Lambert (1992) provided techniques for modeling data with a zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) model. Incorporating zero-inflated likelihoods in spatially explicit models is described in Agarwal et al (2002), Barry and Welsh (2002), Fahrmeir and Echavarria (in press), Gschlobl and Czado (2006), Rathbun and Fei (2006), Rigby and Stasinopoulos (2005) and in general (not spatial) in Hall (2000), Lambert (1992), and Li et al (1999 SemiPar via a space-filling algorithm (Ruppert et al 2003) with the default number of 50 knots.…”
