None of the ones in the picture are my favorite. The Pareto distribution is my favorite.

What is that figure from? I need a good reference on stats and probability since my college course had no book and was taught by a foreigner who could not speak english (he was a solid guy though)

[math]\Beta[/math] distribution

Dirichlet. It's a distribution with support over the simplex of points in [math]\mathbb{R}^\text{# of shape parameters}[/math] whose coordinates are positive and add up to one, so in a sense it's a distribution over multinomial distributions.
I wish I understood the Dirichlet process.
