negbin_overdispersion

<p>A <code>data.table</code> with columns <code>mu, theta</code> and possibly
others.</p>

table

<p>Computes the overdispersion parameter \(w=1+\mu/\theta\) for a negative
binomial distribution parametrized by its expected value \(\mu\) and with 
variance \(\mu+\mu^2/\theta\). The overdispersion is added as a new column 
to the input <code>data.table</code>, meaning that this function <code>modifies</code> 
its input.</p>

internal

Detection of anomalous space-time clusters using the scan
statistics methodology. Focuses on prospective surveillance of data streams,
scanning for clusters with ongoing anomalies. Hypothesis testing is made
possible by the generation of Monte Carlo p-values.

negbin_overdispersion: Computes the overdispersion parameter for a fitted negative binomial model.
