摘要
We propose a two-parameter family of conjugate prior distributions for the number of undiscovered objects in a class of Bayesian search models. The family contains the one-parameter Euler and Heine families as special cases. The two parameters may be interpreted respectively as an overall success rate and a rate of depletion of the source of objects. The new family gives enhanced flexibility in modelling.
