Abstract
Shmueli etal. (2005) introduced the COM-Poisson-binomial distribution, but they did not study the mathematical properties of this family of distributions. In this paper, we discuss some properties and an asymptotic approximation of it by the COM-Poisson distribution. Moreover, three datasets are also considered. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
