Hyperprior on symmetric Dirichlet distribution

In this article we introduce how to put vague hyperprior on Dirichlet distribution, and we update the parameter of it by adaptive rejection sampling (ARS). Finally we analyze this hyperprior in an over-fitted mixture model by some synthetic experiments.
