Multi-Study Factor Analysis [PDF]
AbstractWe introduce a novel class of factor analysis methodologies for the joint analysis of multiple studies. The goal is to separately identify and estimate (1) common factors shared across multiple studies, and (2) study-specific factors. We develop an Expectation Conditional-Maximization algorithm for parameter estimates and we provide a procedure

Multimodal factor analysis [PDF]
A multimodal system with Poisson, Gaussian, and multinomial observations is considered. A generative graphical model that combines multiple modalities through common factor loadings is proposed. In this model, latent factors are like summary objects that has latent factor scores in each modality, and the observed objects are represented in terms of ...

Multivariate analysis of post-transition OECD countries in the context of inequality measures
The aim of this paper is to classify the post-transition OECD countries according to the Gini coefficient for income inequality, the S80/S20 ratio, the income share of the bottom 40% of the population, educational attainment – tertiary education, and ...

Dispersive analysis of the pion transition form factor [PDF]
We analyze the pion transition form factor using dispersion theory. We calculate the singly-virtual form factor in the time-like region based on data for the $e^+e^-\to 3\pi$ cross section, generalizing previous studies on $\omega,\phi\to3\pi$ decays and

Robust Promin: a method for diagonally weighted factor rotation
Oblique rotation of factors is usually performed in exploratory factor analysis in order to achieve the best and simplest interpretation of the solution based on the prescribed number of factors.

Functional factor analysis for periodic remote sensing data [PDF]
We present a new approach to factor rotation for functional data. This is achieved by rotating the functional principal components toward a predefined space of periodic functions designed to decompose the total variation into components that are nearly ...

Exploratory Bi-Factor Analysis [PDF]
Bi-factor analysis is a form of confirmatory factor analysis originally introduced by Holzinger. The bi-factor model has a general factor and a number of group factors. The purpose of this article is to introduce an exploratory form of bi-factor analysis.
