dear R-users, I have to model counts where all counts above some threshold have been censored. In the same dataset I have too many zeroes for a Poisson or even a negative binomial distribution to make sense, so I would need a zero-inflated-censored negative binomial family for use in glmer (or glmmADMB?). That seems not to exist.
my question is : how could I add a custom-built family of distributions that I could call in glmer/glmmADMM ? if it's not possible, I am considering imputing fake values to replace the censored ones, but I am unsure whether this is bad or very bad...
