I am trying to understand the algorithms used in Stickbreaking(), so I tried extracting the code for StickBreaking.forward_val to experiment with it. I can’t understand why it gives a different result when I do this, as in the following: import numpy as np import pymc3 from pymc3.distributions.tran…
