Dear H.Mallinson and UAI people,

      Have a look at my clustering page,
http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~dld/cluster.html

I would recommend the algorithm, Snob, that I have been involved in:
http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~dld/Snob.html ,   which is good with noisy
data (and is Bayesian).  But, of course, have a look at the other offerings on
the http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~dld/cluster.html page, some of which are
Bayesian.

The term "non-parametric Bayesian" seems to mean different things to different
people.  Some people would say 'No' to your question by definition, and others
would say 'Yes'.  I shall play it safe here and now, and I shall pass.


Regards.          - David Dowe.
