We develop a hierarchical version of the CRP to use in specifying a prior for such
models. A nested Chinese restaurant ... When the distribution p(d \ a) is chosen to
be a Dirichlet distribution, we obtain the latent Dirichlet allocation model (LDA) ...

This model, hierarchical LDA (hLDA), is illustrated in Figure Ib. The node labeled
T refers to a collection of an infinite number of L-level paths drawn from a nested
CRP. Given T, the c,nj variables are deterministic — simply look up the /"th level ...
