Abstract: We discuss closed-form formulas for the (n; k)-th partial Bell polynomials derived in Cvijovic. We show that partial Bell polynomials are special cases of weighted integer compositions, and demonstrate how the identities for partial Bell polynomials easily follow from more general identities for weighted integer compositions. We also provide short and elegant probabilistic proofs of the latter, in terms of sums of discrete integer-valued random variables. Finally, we outline further identities for the partial Bell polynomials.
