Microbial community modelling and diversity estimation using the hierarchical Pitman-Yor process
Abstract
Background: The human microbiome comprises the microorganisms that inhabit the various locales of the human body and plays a vital role in human health. The composition of a microbial population is often quantified through measures of species diversity, which summarize the number of species along with their relative abundances into a single value. In a microbiome sample there will certainly be species missing from the 1 .
