The Infinite Gamma-Poisson Feature Model
We present a probability distribution over non-negative integer valued matrices with possibly an infinite number of columns. We also derive a stochastic process that reproduces this distribution over equivalence classes. This model can play the role of the prior in nonparametric Bayesian learning scenarios where multiple latent features are associated with the observed data and each feature can...
متن کاملOn the compound Poisson-gamma distribution
The compound Poisson-gamma variable is the sum of a random sample from a gamma distribution with sample size an independent Poisson random variable. It has received wide ranging applications. In this note, we give an account of its mathematical properties including estimation procedures by the methods of moments and maximum likelihood. Most of the properties given are hitherto unknown.
متن کاملBootstrapping Goodness of Fit Statistics in Loglinear Poisson Models
The possible discrepancy between a hypothesized model and the observed data is measured by so called Goodness of Fit Statistics. In order to decide whether the observed discrepancy is substantial, the distributions of these statistics under the hypothesised model are needed to perform a statistical test. Because of the diiculty to compute the exact distributions, just when the sample size is sm...
متن کاملBayesian paradigm for analysing count data in longitudina studies using Poisson-generalized log-gamma model
In analyzing longitudinal data with counted responses, normal distribution is usually used for distribution of the random efffects. However, in some applications random effects may not be normally distributed. Misspecification of this distribution may cause reduction of efficiency of estimators. In this paper, a generalized log-gamma distribution is used for the random effects which includes th...
متن کاملThe Poisson Gamma Belief Network
To infer a multilayer representation of high-dimensional count vectors, we propose the Poisson gamma belief network (PGBN) that factorizes each of its layers into the product of a connection weight matrix and the nonnegative real hidden units of the next layer. The PGBN’s hidden layers are jointly trained with an upward-downward Gibbs sampler, each iteration of which upward samples Dirichlet di...
