Consider a restaurant with three tables. One table has 5 customers, another has 2, and the third has 0. If a new customer comes in, calculate the probabilities of sitting at each table and starting a new one with a concentration parameter (α) of 3.
💡 Hint: Remember to factor in the concentration parameter when calculating probabilities.
You have a dataset where initial cluster distributions change over time as more data points arrive. Describe how the CRP would adapt to these changes, focusing on new customers' choices.
💡 Hint: Think about how group dynamics may influence individual choices over time.
