The characteristic feature of this model is that if the exact values of the latent variable were known, estimation of the parameters can be handled by a single model. For example, for the case of mixture models, posterior density for each component parameters would be a BayesianModel from Exponential Family. This class uses EM-style type algorithms for estimation of its parameters. Under this simplification, the posterior density is a product of exponential family members, hence under EM-style approximate estimation this class itself belongs to the exponential family.
