Completely random measures are distributions over measures that assign independent masses to disjoint subsets. Examples include the beta process, gamma process and stable process.

We will cover infinite divisibility, completely random measures, normalized random measures, and neutral-to-the-right processes.

A good general reference for the material covered is Lijoi and Prünster (2010) Models beyond the Dirichlet process. In Hjort et al (eds), Bayesian Nonparametrics, CUP . – available here: http://ideas.repec.org/p/cca/wpaper/129.html
