β¦ Synopsis
The two parameter generalized Poisson distribution (GPD) has been usefully applied to many biological and genetic problems and important interpretations have been given to both the parameters; however, reliable interval estimates for them are not available. A number of results on the plausibility inference for the GPD have been provided. Likelihood intervals and likelihood regions are also considered for the two parameters of the GPD. Expressions n d e d to compute the intervals and regions are given. These results are then applied to two biological problems to derive the relevant regions and intervals-for the parameters of interest.
