Bayesian nonparametric analysis for a species sampling model with finitely many types

Abstract

We derive explicit Bayesian nonparametric analysis for a species sampling model with finitely many types of Gibbs form of type α=1\alpha= -1 recently introduced in Gnedin (2009). Our results complement existing analysis under Gibbs priors of type α[0,1)\alpha \in [0, 1) proposed in Lijoi et al. (2008). Calculations rely on a groups sequential construction of Gibbs partitions introduced in Cerquetti (2008).
