Parameters (shape)
Support is a positive-definite matrix with unit diagonal
Mean the identity matrix

In

probabilistic programming language and as a library linked to the Turing.jl probabilistic programming library in Julia
.

The distribution has a single shape parameter and the probability density function for a matrix is

with normalizing constant , a complicated expression including a product over Beta functions. For , the distribution is uniform over the space of all correlation matrices; i.e. the space of positive definite matrices with unit diagonal.
