    • Fisher information matrix of the Dirichlet-multinomial distribution 

      Banerjee, Tathagata; Paul, Sudhir; Balsuriya, Uditha (2005-10-26)
      In this paper we derive explicit expressions for the elements of the exact Fisher information matrix of the Dirichlet-multinomial distribution. We show that exact calculation is based on the beta-binomial probability ...

    • The multi-clump finite mixture distribution and model selection 

      Paul, Sudhir; Banerjee, Tathagata; Balasoorya, Uditha (2010-09-08)
      In practical data analysis, often an important problem is to determine the number of clumps in discrete data in the form of proportions. This can be done through model selection in a multi-clump finite mixture model. In ...
