Multivariate Generalizations of the Multiplicative Binomial Distribution: Introducing the MM PackageKeywords: generalized linear models , multiplicative binomial , overdispersion , overdispersed binomial , categorical exponential family , multiplicative multinomial distribution , R Abstract: We present two natural generalizations of the multinomial and multivariate binomial distributions, which arise from the multiplicative binomial distribution of Altham (1978). The resulting two distributions are discussed and we introduce an R package, MM, whichincludes associated functionality.
