Some observations on migration from rural areas: an evaluation of generalized inflated geometric distribution

"Under certain simplifying assumptions relating to the migration process, generalized inflated geometric distribution for some observations on migration from rural areas has been evaluated. The parameters involved in the distribution are estimated by [the] maximum likelihood method. The elements of the information matrix are given for the determination of variances and covariances of the estimates. The distribution is applied to an example [for India] and provides an adequate fit to the data."
