statsmodels.discrete.count_model.ZeroInflatedPoissonResults.conf_int

ZeroInflatedPoissonResults.conf_int(alpha=0.05, cols=None, method='default')

Returns the confidence interval of the fitted parameters.

Parameters:

• alpha (float, optional) – The significance level for the confidence interval. ie., The default alpha = .05 returns a 95% confidence interval.
• cols (array-like, optional) – cols specifies which confidence intervals to return
• method (string) – Not Implemented Yet Method to estimate the confidence_interval. “Default” : uses self.bse which is based on inverse Hessian for MLE “hjjh” : “jac” : “boot-bse” “boot_quant” “profile”

Returns:

conf_int – Each row contains [lower, upper] limits of the confidence interval for the corresponding parameter. The first column contains all lower, the second column contains all upper limits.

Return type:

array

Examples

>>> import statsmodels.api as sm
>>> data = sm.datasets.longley.load()
>>> data.exog = sm.add_constant(data.exog)
>>> results = sm.OLS(data.endog, data.exog).fit()
>>> results.conf_int()

       [-3.12506664, -0.91539297]])

Notes

The confidence interval is based on the standard normal distribution. Models wish to use a different distribution should overwrite this method.
