Latent Variable Autoencoder [PDF]
Learning to discover hidden variables from unlabeled data is an important task. Traditional generative methods model the generation process of the observed variables as well as the hidden variables.

The use of latent variable models in policy: A road fraught with peril? [PDF]
This paper explores the potential usefulness and possible pitfalls of using integrated choice and latent variable models (hybrid choice models) on stated choice data to inform policy.

Latent Variable Forests for Latent Variable Score Estimation [PDF]
We develop a latent variable forest (LV Forest) algorithm for the estimation of latent variable scores with one or more latent variables. LV Forest estimates unbiased latent variable scores based on confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) models with ordinal and/or numerical response variables.

Multimodal latent variable analysis [PDF]
Consider a set of multiple, multimodal sensors capturing a complex system or a physical phenomenon of interest. Our primary goal is to distinguish the underlying sources of variability manifested in the measured data. The first step in our analysis is to find the common source of variability present in all sensor measurements.

A constrained latent variable model [PDF]
Latent variable models provide valuable compact representations for learning and inference in many computer vision tasks. However, most existing models cannot directly encode prior knowledge about the specific problem at hand. In this paper, we introduce a constrained latent variable model whose generated output inherently accounts for such knowledge ...

Longitudinal Invariance Analysis of the Short Grit Scale in Chinese Young Adults
The current study examined the longitudinal measurement invariance (LMI) of the Short Grit Scale (Grit-S) in a survey sample of Chinese young adults (N = 233, 48.9% male, mean age = 19.36 years, SD = 0.90 years) who completed the Grit-S twice over a 3 ...

Testing and Interpreting Latent Variable Interactions Using the semTools Package
Examining interactions among predictors is an important part of a developing research program. Estimating interactions using latent variables provides additional power to detect effects over testing interactions in regression.

Latent variable modeling for the microbiome [PDF]
SummaryThe human microbiome is a complex ecological system, and describing its structure and function under different environmental conditions is important from both basic scientific and medical perspectives. Viewed through a biostatistical lens, many microbiome analysis goals can be formulated as latent variable modeling problems.
