Beta-Negative Binomial Process and Exchangeable Random Partitions for Mixed-Membership Modeling
Mingyuan Zhou
The beta-negative binomial process (BNBP), an integer-valued stochastic process, is employed to partition a count vector into a latent random count matrix. As the marginal probabil…

Priors for Random Count Matrices Derived from a Family of Negative Binomial Processes
Mingyuan Zhou, Oscar Hernan Madrid Padilla, James G. Scott
We define a family of probability distributions for random count matrices with a potentially unbounded number of rows and columns. The three distributions we consider are derived f…
