  1. What exactly is the alpha in the Dirichlet distribution?

    Nov 9, 2016 · The Dirichlet distribution is a generalization of the beta distribution into multiple dimensions, so you can start by learning about the beta distribution. Beta is a univariate distribution …

  2. Dirichlet distribution vs Multinomial distribution? - Cross Validated

    May 21, 2020 · Dirichlet is commonly used as a prior on a probability vector, since it is the conjugate prior of the multinomial distribution.

  3. probability - What is a Dirichlet prior - Cross Validated

    Dec 25, 2014 · You can watch the whole presentation if you want (it is a good explanation of the Dirichlet distribution) but I think the slides will get the concept across pretty quickly. Slides 32-35 …

  4. Dirichlet conditions for the convergence of Fourier series

    May 9, 2017 · That's a case when the "sufficient" and "necessary" properties of statements come into play. Although the square wave function really doesn't satisfies the Dirichlet conditions (The definition …

  5. bayesian - Why is the Dirichlet distribution the prior for the ...

    The Dirichlet distribution is a conjugate prior for the multinomial distribution. This means that if the prior distribution of the multinomial parameters is Dirichlet then the posterior distribution is also a Dirichlet …

  6. Why Dirichlet form are interesting? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jan 16, 2019 · To wrap it up, Dirichlet forms are related to a lot of interesting mathematical objects at the intersection of analysis, geometry and probability, and, what is nore, they often provide a technically …

  7. Variants of Dirichlet's theorem on Fourier series

    Feb 26, 2015 · I would like to know about generalizations of Dirichlet's theorem. Specifically: Dirichlet's theorem gives a sufficient condition for convergence of the Fourier series. Are necessary conditions …

  8. Understanding and Implementing a Dirichlet Process model

    Aug 16, 2015 · 14 I am trying to implement and learn a Dirichlet Process to cluster my data (or as machine learning people speak, estimate the density). I read a lot of paper in the topic and sort of got …

  9. stochastic processes - Understanding Dirichlet Process (vs Dirichlet ...

    Jan 1, 2019 · Regarding the part " the Dirichlet process is a distribution where any group of subsets follows the Dirichlet distribution", can we rephrase the sentence by saying that if the random variable …

  10. Dirichlet Conditions and Fourier Analysis. - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    I also came across the fact that arcsin x has a convergent Fourier series but does not satisfy the Dirichlet conditions. The conditions are "not necessary" because no one proved a theorem that if the …
