Question

Using your result in (a), give the marginal posterior π(αj |yj ).

Solution

I'm sorry, but you didn't provide the result in (a) or the context of the problem. The marginal posterior π(αj |yj ) is a concept from Bayesian statistics and it represents the probability of the parameter αj given the observed data yj, after having seen the data. However, without the specific context or the result from part (a), I can't provide a step-by-step solution. Could you please provide more details?

Assume a Dirichlet prior on the multinomial parameters, i.e. π(θj1, θj2, θj3)= Dirichlet(a1, a2, a3) (note the same prior is used for both datasets). Analyticallycalculate the joint posterior π(αj , βj |yj ). Give your answer in abstract form (withoutsubstituting values from the table). Hint: use the change of variables formula.

Each player (child) is assigned an ID number between 1 and 20 for every prizedraw. The team, the coaches and parents get together every Saturday afternoon for theprize draw. Assume that there is exactly one prize drawn at random each week. Seta (IDnumber 7) is a very smart and competitive player. He decided to roll a fair four-sided dieonce and whatever number is rolled, that’s the number of prize/s he wishes to get. LetX be the number that Seta has rolled (that is, the number of prize/s Seta wishes to get)and let Y be the number of weeks (or Saturdays) that Seta wins no prizes before he winsa prize for the Xth time.[6 marks](c) Roll a standard 4-sided die (with sides labelled 1, 2, 3, 4) and let X be the number rolled.Then take a fair 10-sided die (with sides labelled 1, . . . , 10) and roll it repeatedly until youroll a number strictly larger than X. Let Y be the number of times you roll the 10-sideddie, not including the last roll (i.e., the number of times you roll a number less than orequal to X)
