Lavine, Michael Some aspects of Pólya tree distributions for statistical modelling. (English) Zbl 0765.62005 Ann. Stat. 20, No. 3, 1222-1235 (1992). Applications of Polya trees are discussed. It is shown how to construct a Polya tree with a given predictive density and how to use the mixtures of them to model uncertainty about a parametric model. Examples with data are presented.
