Bayesian nonparametric models of sparse and exchangeable random graphs
Statistical network modeling has focused on representing the graph as a discrete structure, namely the adjacency matrix, and considering the exchangeability of this array. In such cases, the Aldous-Hoover representation theorem (Aldous, 1981; Hoover, 1979) applies and informs us that the graph is necessarily either dense or empty. In this paper, we instead consider representing the graph as a m...
متن کاملPredictive information and Bayesian surprise in exchangeable random processes
In this report we examine the connection between Itti and Baldi’s ‘Bayesian suprise’ [1] and instantaneous predictive information [2], and show that the two are identical in certain classes of exchangeable random sequences. We also examine how these relationships can be used to compute the instantaneous predictive information in a Markov chain where the transition matrix is unknown. Samples fro...
متن کاملExchangeable and partially exchangeable random partitions
Call a random partition of the positive integers partially exchangeable if for each finite sequence of positive integers n l , . . . , nk, the probability that the partition breaks the first nl + . . . § nk integers into k particular classes, of sizes nl . . . . , nk in order of their first elements, has the same value p(na . . . . . nk) for every possible choice of classes subject to the sizes...
متن کاملExchangeable random hypergraphs
A hypergraph is a generalization of a graph in which an edge may contain more than two vertices. Hereditary hypergraphs are particularly important because they arise in mathematics as the class of monotone subsets, in statistics as the class of factorial models, in topology as simplicial complexes and in algebra as the free distributive lattice. An exchangeable random hypergraph consists of a p...
متن کاملExchangeable random arrays
These notes were written to accompany a sequence of workshop lectures at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in January 2013. My lectures had two purposes. The first was to introduce some of the main ideas of exchangeability theory at a level suitable for graduate students (assuming familiarity with measure-theoretic probability). The second was to show the key rôle exchangeability has p...
