**Definition:** Dirichlet-distributed data are defined as a set of vectors of proportions $y = \left\lbrace y_1, \ldots, y_n \right\rbrace$ where
25+
26+
$$ \label{eq:dir-def}
27+
\begin{split}
28+
y_i &= [y_{i1}, \ldots, y_{ik}], \\
29+
y_{ij} &\in [0,1] \quad \text{and} \\
30+
\sum_{j=1}^k y_{ij} &= 1
31+
\end{split}
32+
$$
33+
34+
for all $i = 1,\ldots,n$ (and $j = 1,\ldots,k$) and each $y_i$ is independent and identically distributed according to a [Dirichlet distribution](/D/dir) with concentration parameters $\alpha = [\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_k]$:
35+
36+
$$ \label{eq:dir-data}
37+
y_i \sim \mathrm{Dir}(\alpha), \quad i = 1, \ldots, n \; .

**Definition:** Let $X = \left\lbrace X_1, \ldots, X_n \right\rbrace$ be a set of $n$ [random variables](/D/rvar) which the [joint probability distribution](/D/dist-joint) $p(X) = p(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$. Then, the exceedance probability for random variable $X_i$ is the [probability](/D/prob) that $X_i$ is larger than all other random variables $X_j, \; j \neq i$:
38+
39+
$$ \label{eq:EP}
40+
\begin{split}
41+
\varphi(X_i) &= \mathrm{Pr}\left( \forall j \in \left\lbrace 1, \ldots, n | j \neq i \right\rbrace: \, X_i > X_j \right) \\
42+
&= \mathrm{Pr}\left( \bigwedge_{j \neq i} X_i > X_j \right) \\
43+
&= \mathrm{Pr}\left( X_i = \mathrm{max}(\left\lbrace X_1, \ldots, X_n \right\rbrace) \right) \\
44+
&= \int_{X_i = \mathrm{max}(X)} p(X) \, \mathrm{d}X \; .
45+
\end{split}
