14.7 Poisson-log generalized linear model (Poisson regression)
Stan also supplies a single function for a generalized linear model with Poisson likelihood and log link function, i.e. a function for a Poisson regression. This provides a more efficient implementation of Poisson regression than a manually written regression in terms of a Poisson likelihood and matrix multiplication.
14.7.1 Probability mass function
If \(x\in \mathbb{R}^{n\cdot m}, \alpha \in \mathbb{R}^n, \beta\in \mathbb{R}^m\), then for \(y \in \mathbb{N}^n\), \[ \text{PoisonLogGLM}(y|x, \alpha, \beta) = \prod_{1\leq i \leq n}\text{Poisson}(y_i|\exp(\alpha_i + x_i\cdot \beta)). \]
