Abstract: In a Bayesian mixture model, there is no need a priori to restrict the number of components to be finite. Infinite
mixture models sidestep the problem of finding the "correct" number of components, and may be handled using a
finite amount of computation. In this paper it is demonstrated how inference may be done in infinite mixture models
using a Markov Chain whose implementation relies entirely on Gibbs sampling. An example is given of application to
multivariate density estimation.

.... For Gaussian mixture models Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been developed to approximate these integrals by sampling [6, 5]. The main criticism of MCMC methods is that they are slow and it is usually difficult to assess convergence. Furthermore, the...
