High-Dimensional Covariate-Augmented Overdispersed Poisson Factor Model

The current Poisson factor models often assume that the factors are unknown, which overlooks the explanatory potential of certain observable covariates. This study focuses on high dimensional settings, where the number of the count response variables and/or covariates can diverge as the sample size increases. A covariate-augmented overdispersed Poisson factor model is proposed to jointly perform a high-dimensional Poisson factor analysis and estimate a large coefficient matrix for overdispersed count data.

Installation

“COAP” depends on the ‘Rcpp’ and ‘RcppArmadillo’ package, which requires appropriate setup of computer. For the users that have set up system properly for compiling C++ files, the following installation command will work.

if (!require("remotes", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("feiyoung/COAP")
