Counted essential surfaces in a knot's exterior, finding a unique pattern.

problem Counting essential surfaces in a knot's exterior.

A gamma process dynamic Poisson factor analysis model is proposed to factorize a dynamic count matrix, whose columns are sequentially observed count vectors. The model builds a novel Markov chain that sends the latent gamma random variables at time (t1)(t-1) as the shape parameters of those at time tt, which are linked …
