Compound Poisson Distribution

The compound Poisson distribution is a distribution that arises from the combination of two or more Poisson distributions.

It is used to model situations in which there are multiple events that occur independently and with a known, constant rate.

The compound Poisson distribution can be used to model both positive and negative binomial distributions, as well as the geometric distribution.
