We introduce a new dynamical system for sequentially observed multivariate count data. This model is based on the gamma--Poisson construction---a natural choice for count data---and relies on a novel Bayesian nonparametric prior that ties…

While most Bayesian nonparametric models in machine learning have focused on the Dirichlet process, the beta process, or their variants, the gamma process has recently emerged as a useful nonparametric prior in its own right. Current…

We derive a construction of the beta process that allows for the atoms with significant measure to be drawn first. Our representation is based on an extension of the Sethuraman (1994) construction of the Dirichlet process, and therefore we…
