Estimate outcome regression on original scale for count outcomes #129

Open Lauren-EylerDang opened 1 year ago

Lauren-EylerDang commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I would like to use LMTP with a count outcome but it appears that the package is internally scaling Y before estimating the outcome regression. As a result, I cannot use some of the algorithms that are commonly used for count outcomes (like a zero-inflated negative binomial model). Would it be possible to scale Y and Q after estimating the outcome regression?

Thank you, Lauren
