| Mar 3, 2015 at 16:19 | comment | added | kjetil b halvorsen | Note that if $g$ is the number of zeros in your multinomial vector $X$, then ovarhang is simply $\hat{N}=N-b+g$, so you want the distribution of the number of zeros $G$ in an multinomial vector. Could there be an poisson approximation for that? | |
