Integer Multinomial Distribution

Data Type: Sequence[Tuple[int, float]]

The integer multinomial distribution is a generalization of the binomial distribution to k classes. The multinomial give the probability of observing n_k success of class k in \(n=\sum_{i}n_i\) trials. The probability mass function is given by

\[f(\boldsymbol{x} \vert n, \boldsymbol{p}) = \frac{n!}{x_1!\dots x_k!} p_1^{x_1}\dots p_k^{x_k},\]

where \(\sum_{i=1}^{k} p_i = 1\) and \(\sum_{i=1}^{k} x_i = n\).
