Marginal Log-Likelihood Increments under Dirichlet-Smoothed Markov Estimation

For a Dirichlet-smoothed transition model, the effect of adding one workflow trace to the training archive is an exact change in reference-weighted log likelihood. We derive that change and show that it is a weighted reduction of Kullback--Leibler divergence between the reference conditionals and the model. From this f...
