Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What does the concentration parameter (Ξ±) do in a Dirichlet Process?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how changing Ξ± might affect the number of clusters.

Question 2

Easy

What is the base distribution (Gβ‚€) in the Dirichlet Process?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider it as the starting point for our data clustering.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall the formula G ~ DP(Ξ±, Gβ‚€).

Question 2

A Dirichlet Process allows for what kind of parameter space?

  • Finite-dimensional
  • Infinite-dimensional

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how this relates to model flexibility.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are given a dataset with an unknown number of categories. Explain how you would utilize a Dirichlet Process to model this data, considering the implications of the concentration parameter.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider using visualization or simulation to see how clusters change with different values of Ξ±.

Question 2

How would you explain the relevance of the base distribution Gβ‚€ when setting up a Dirichlet Process for a new application?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how different distributions could affect clustering results.
