  • The Markov and the Mixed-Poisson Models of Library Circulation Compared. Tague, Jean Ajiferuke, Isola Comparative Analysis Developed Nations Foreign Countries Goodness of Fit Hypothesis Testing Library Circulation Mathematical Models Predictive Measurement Regression (Statistics) Tables (Data) Two models of library circulation, the Markov model and the mixed Poisson Model, are applied to circulation statistics from the University of Saskatchewan.
