plot_prior_number_of_components {BNPdensity}

This plots the prior distribution on the number of components for the stable process. The Dirichlet process is provided for comparison.

Description

This plots the prior distribution on the number of components for the stable process. The Dirichlet process is provided for comparison.

Usage

plot_prior_number_of_components(
  n,
  Gama,
  Alpha = 1,
  grid = NULL,
  silence = TRUE
)

Arguments

n

Number of data points

Gama

Numeric constant. 0 <= Gama <=1.

Alpha

Numeric constant. Total mass of the centering measure for the Dirichlet process.

grid

Integer vector. Level of truncation when computing the expectation. Defaults to n. If greater than n, it is fixed to n.

silence

Boolean. Whether to print the current calculation step for the Stable process, as the function can be long

Value

A plot with the prior distribution on the number of components.

Examples

plot_prior_number_of_components(50, 0.4)
