In this work we present a new Bayesian topic model: latent hierarchical Pitman-Yor process allocation (LHPYA), which uses hierarchical Pitman-Yor pr ocess priors for both word and topic distributions, and generalizes a few of the existing topic models, including the latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), the bi- gram topic model and the hierarchical Pitman-Yor topic model. Using such priors allows for integration of -grams with a topic model, while smoothing them with the state-of-the-art method. Our model is evaluated by measuring its perplexity on a dataset of musical genre and harmony annotations 3GenreDatabase (3GDB) andbymeasuringitsabilitytopredictmusicalgenrefromchord sequences. In terms of perplexit y, for a 262-chord dictionary we achieve a value of 2.74, compared to 18.05 for trigrams and 7.73 for a unigram topic model. In terms of genre prediction accuracy with 9 genres, the proposed approach performs about 33% better in relative terms than genre-dependent -grams, ac hieving 60.4% of accuracy.
