B1 The x distribution is a special case of Gamma distribution (not to be confused with gamma
function; see below). The density function of the Gamma distribution with parameters
and k is given by
where
-1
e
-x/0
(x) =
=
г(k) Øk
if x > 0, and
otherwise,
г(k) = √ ₁
k-1-x dx
x' e
is the gamma function.
(a) For every k ≥ 1, 0 > 0, find the mode of the density. Hint: The algebra can be
simplified by appropriate use of logarithms.
~
Now suppose that X1,..., Xn id Exp(\) and that we have a prior belief in A which is
consistent with a prior distribution X. Gamma(a, b), for some a, ß, i.e. the prior density
of is
Baxa-1-BA
T(a)
e

so 01/ẞ and k = a.
(b) Write down the likelihood, and show that the posterior distribution for \ is also a
Gamma distribution, but with parameters a +n and B + Σ Xi.
(c) Find the mode of the posterior distribution and examine the behaviour as n → ∞.
