plot_prior_number_of_components function

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

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

Returns

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

Examples

plot_prior_number_of_components(50, 0.4)
