A marginal sampler for $σ$ -Stable Poisson-Kingman mixture models

María Lomelí, Stefano Favaro, Yee Whye Teh

We investigate the class of $σ$ -stable Poisson-Kingman random probability measures (RPMs) in the context of Bayesian nonparametric mixture modeling. This is a large class of discre…

Large deviation principles for the Ewens-Pitman sampling model

Stefano Favaro, Shui Feng

Let $M_{l, n}$ be the number of blocks with frequency $l$ in the exchangeable random partition induced by a sample of size $n$ from the Ewens-Pitman sampling model. We show that, as…

Rediscovery of Good-Turing estimators via Bayesian nonparametrics

Stefano Favaro, Bernardo Nipoti, Yee Whye Teh

The problem of estimating discovery probabilities originated in the context of statistical ecology, and in recent years it has become popular due to its frequent appearance in chal…
