Poisson count change-point model with gamma priors

ID: poisson-count-change-point-model-with-gamma-priors

For independent Poisson distributions with rate up to an unknown index and rate after it, independent shape-rate Gamma distribution priors give the displayed posterior distribution when is uniform on and . The model differs from a continuous-time Poisson change-point posterior. The endpoint represents no observed change: the second segment is empty and its rate keeps its prior law.
