MCMC inference in (Conditionally) Conjugate Dirichlet Process Gaussian Mixture Models

2006

ei


We compare the predictive accuracy of the Dirichlet Process Gaussian mixture models using conjugate and conditionally conjugate priors and show that better density models result from using the wider class of priors. We explore several MCMC schemes exploiting conditional conjugacy and show their computational merits on several multidimensional density estimation problems.
