Poisson

Discrete distribution for number of events in an interval.

Parameters

Rate: Rate of Occurrence

Applications

Applied in modeling how many events happen in a period, such as defaults, claims, outages or transactions, including rare events.

To apply Monte Carlo simulations to the inputs/outputs of your model, see the Scenarios - Monte Carlo module.

Poisson

Outputs

Plot: Histogram of the distribution with selected Confidence Interval.
