基金The proposed COM-negative binomial distribution of this work was as early as conceptualized in December, 2014 when the authors saw the online version of [15]. The authors want to thank Prof. R. KShler for mailing the valuable encyclopedia of discrete univariate distributions [39] to them. This work was partly supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 11201165).
