Evaluating Sensitivity to the Stick-Breaking Prior in Bayesian Nonparametrics

no code implementations8 Jul 2021 Ryan Giordano, Runjing Liu, Michael I. Jordan, Tamara Broderick

Bayesian models based on the Dirichlet process and other stick-breaking priors have been proposed as core ingredients for clustering, topic modeling, and other unsupervised learning tasks.

A Swiss Army Infinitesimal Jackknife

3 code implementations1 Jun 2018 Ryan Giordano, Will Stephenson, Runjing Liu, Michael. I. Jordan, Tamara Broderick

This linear approximation is sometimes known as the "infinitesimal jackknife" in the statistics literature, where it is mostly used to as a theoretical tool to prove asymptotic results.
