 EM for zero-inflated negative binomial regression

For known size $r$ and ${\lambda }_i=e^{x_i^T\beta }$, the expectation-maximization algorithm gives structural-zero responsibility $t_i=0$ for positive counts and $t_i=\pi /[\pi +(1-\pi )(r/(r+{\lambda }_i){)}^r]$ for zero counts. This is Bayes theorem. Maximizing the expected complete-data log-likelihood gives ${\pi }_{\mathrm{new}}=n^{-1}{\sum }_i{t}_i$ and a weighted negative binomial regression with weights $1-t_i$. The objective separates into a Bernoulli mixing term and a weighted count term, which proves the update.
