  1. A semiparametric Bayesian model for multiple monotonically increasing count sequences

    2016 · Brazilian Journal of Probability and Statistics

    In longitudinal clinical trials, subjects may be evaluated many times over the course of the study. This article is motivated by a medical study conducted in the U.S. Veterans Administration Cooperative Urological Research Group to …

  2. The Semi-Hierarchical Dirichlet Process and Its Application to Clustering Homogeneous Distributions

    2021 · Bayesian Analysis

    Assessing homogeneity of distributions is an old problem that has received considerable attention, especially in the nonparametric Bayesian literature. To this effect, we propose the semi-hierarchical Dirichlet process, a novel hierarchical prior that extends the …

  3. Dependent Random Partition Models

    2019 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    We consider the task of modeling a dependent sequence of random partitions. It is well-known that a random measure in Bayesian nonparametrics induces a distribution over random partitions. The community has therefore assumed that the …
