Recently, James [15, 16] has derived important results for various models in Bayesian nonparametric inference. In particular, he dened a spatial version of neutral to the right processes and derived their posterior distribution. Moreover, he obtained the posterior distribution for an intensity...

We provide a new approach to the sampling of the well known mixture of Dirichlet process model. Recent attention has focused on retention of the random distribution function in the model, but sampling algorithms have then suffered from the countably infinite representation these distributions...
