I’m running into what I think might be a bug with PyMC3’s Binomial likelihood. Here’s the example. Simulate data itrs = 100 p = 0.4 W = [] L = [] N = [] for i in range(itrs): n = int(np.random.normal(loc=100, scale=20)) wins = np.random.binomial(n=n,p=p) losses = n - wins N.append(n) …

I am not sure where did I make a typo. A beta-binomial distribution or model refers to this kind of model where each observation is modelled with a binomial likelihood whose p parameter is in turn given a unique beta prior that has shared alpha/beta hyper priors. This: with pm.Model() as m1: alp…
