Figure B.1: Effect of the scale of the parameters <strong>for</strong> the Dirichlet distribution. Top row: Samples<br />

from Dirichlet distribution with three different parameter settings. Bottom row:<br />

Parameter values. The samples lie on the 2-D simplex denoted by the triangle.<br />

Note that the relative magnitudes <strong>for</strong> the distribution parameters are the same,<br />

however the scale changes, which effects the spread of the samples. The samples<br />

get more concentrated around the mean the higher the scale gets.<br />
