Abstract: We investigate distributional properties of the centered Erdős--Rényi distribution (Lunagòmez et al., 2021) and propose a semi-conjugate Bayesian approach to multiple network data. In simulations, both Gibbs sampling and empirical Bayes accurately recover network summaries, with the latter scaling efficiently with network size. As a companion to this note, we provide the R package BayesCER, which implements the proposed methodology.
