We present a dependent Bayesian nonparametric model for the proba- bilistic modelling of species-by-site data, i.e. population data where observations at different sites are classified into distinct species. We use a dependent version of the Griffiths-Engen-McCloskey distribution, the...

Although there have been a lot of developpements in the recent years on estimation in Bayesian nonparametric models, from a theoretical point view as well as from a methodological point of view, little has been done on Bayesian testing in nonparametric frameworks. In this talk I will be...

This introduction to Bayesian statistics presents the main concepts as well as the principal reasons advocated in favour of a Bayesian modelling. We cover the various approaches to prior determination as well as the basis asymptotic arguments in favour of using Bayes estimators. The testing...
