To whom it may concern,
I encountered a bug in gsl_ran_multinomial_lnpdf function.
The case this function does not consider is the degenerated cases.
Suppose I have input size_t K=3, p[]={0.5,0.5,0}; n[]={2,3,0}. This
function will not return correct results.
In this case, we can just ignore the last class probability, which is
p[]={0.5,0.5}, n[]={2,3}.
BTW: I use this library for 2 years. It is good software!
Sincerely,
