Abstract
In this article, the zero-inflated non-central negative binomial (ZINNB) distribution is introduced. Some of its basic properties are obtained. In addition, we use the maximum likelihood estimation method to estimate the parameters of the ZINNB distribution, and illustrate its application by fitting the actual data sets.
