Abstract
Starting from the expected value of a certain transformation of the Poisson random variable, a new family of discrete distributions is proposed. Special attention is given to particular members of the family. In this way a discrete distribution is obtained, named “simple meta-Poisson,” whose unique parameter is the quadratic mean. The potential usefulness of the simple meta-Poisson distribution is confirmed by its fit compared with the fits of various two-parameters distributions.
