PriorDensity

mdObj

<p>Calculate the prior density of a mixing distribution</p>

Perform nonparametric Bayesian analysis using Dirichlet
processes without the need to program the inference algorithms.
Utilise included pre-built models or specify custom
models and allow the dirichletprocess package to handle the
Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling.
Our Dirichlet process objects can act as building blocks for a variety
of statistical models including and not limited to: density estimation,
clustering and prior distributions in hierarchical models.
