rCategorical

<p>numeric, probabilities. length(p)=K.</p>

<p>Generate random integer samples from a Categorical distribution. For a random variable x, the density function of categorical distribution is defined as
  $$prod_{k in 1:K} p_k^{I(x=k)}$$
Where K is the number of unique values.</p>

A set of frequently used Bayesian parametric and nonparametric model structures, as well as a set of tools for common analytical tasks. Structures include linear Gaussian systems, Gaussian and Normal-Inverse-Wishart conjugate structure, Gaussian and Normal-Inverse-Gamma conjugate structure, Categorical and Dirichlet conjugate structure, Dirichlet Process on positive integers, Dirichlet Process in general, Hierarchical Dirichlet Process ... Tasks include updating posteriors, sampling from posteriors, calculating marginal likelihood, calculating posterior predictive densities, sampling from posterior predictive distributions, calculating "Maximum A Posteriori" (MAP) estimates ...
