Latent variables analysis in person-oriented research [PDF]
In this article, we demonstrate that latent variable analysis can be of great use in person-oriented research. Starting with exploratory factor analysis of metric variables, we present an example of the problems that come with generalization of ...

A Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney Test for Latent Variables [PDF]
We propose an extension of the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test to compare two groups when the outcome variable is latent. We empirically demonstrate that the test can have superior power properties relative to tests based on Structural Equation Modeling for a

Neural criticality from effective latent variables [PDF]
Observations of power laws in neural activity data have raised the intriguing notion that brains may operate in a critical state. One example of this critical state is ‘avalanche criticality’, which has been observed in various systems, including ...

Coding of latent variables in sensory, parietal, and frontal cortices during closed-loop virtual navigation [PDF]
We do not understand how neural nodes operate and coordinate within the recurrent action-perception loops that characterize naturalistic self-environment interactions.

A protocol for modelling generalised biological responses using latent variables in structural equation models [PDF]
In this paper, we consider the problem of how to quantitatively characterise the degree to which a study object exhibits a generalised response. By generalised response, we mean a multivariate response where numerous individual properties change in ...

An Algorithm for Learning Causal Structure of Latent Variables with Arbitrary Distribution [PDF]
Causal discovery refers to mining the causal relationship between variables through observation data.In practical application, it needs to learn the causal structure between hidden variables from observation data.Some existing methods mainly address the ...

Dynamic system multivariate calibration based on multirate sampling data [PDF]
The statistical principal component regression (PCR) and chemometric partial least squares regression (PLSR) algorithms based on latent variables (LV) modeling are effective tools for handling ill-conditioned regression data.

A didactically motivated PLS prediction algorithm [PDF]
The intention of this paper is to develop an easily understood PLS prediction algorithm, especially for the control community. The algorithm is based on an explicit latent variables model, and is otherwise a combination of the previously published ...

Research on neural processes with multiple latent variables
Neural Process (NP) fully combines the advantages of neural network and Gaussian Process (GP) to provide an efficient method for solving regression problems. Nonetheless, limited by the dimensionality of the latent variable, NP has difficulty fitting the
