15 صفحه اولLatent-variable models for longitudinal data with bivariate ordinal outcomes.
We use the concept of latent variables to derive the joint distribution of bivariate ordinal outcomes, and then extend the model to allow for longitudinal data. Specifically, we relate the observed ordinal outcomes using threshold values to a bivariate latent variable, which is then modelled as a linear mixed model. Random effects terms are used to tie all together repeated observations from th...
متن کاملInference for dynamic and latent variable models via iterated, perturbed Bayes maps.
Iterated filtering algorithms are stochastic optimization procedures for latent variable models that recursively combine parameter perturbations with latent variable reconstruction. Previously, theoretical support for these algorithms has been based on the use of conditional moments of perturbed parameters to approximate derivatives of the log likelihood function. Here, a theoretical approach i...
متن کاملExact Inference for Integer Latent-Variable Models
Graphical models with latent count variables arise in a number of areas. However, standard inference algorithms do not apply to these models due to the infinite support of the latent variables. Winner & Sheldon (2016) recently developed a new technique using probability generating functions (PGFs) to perform efficient, exact inference for certain Poisson latent variable models. However, the met...
متن کاملBayesian inference for latent variable models
3 Abstract Bayes’ theorem is the cornerstone of statistical inference. It provides the tools for dealing with knowledge in an uncertain world, allowing us to explain observed phenomena through the refinement of belief in model parameters. At the heart of this elegant framework lie intractable integrals, whether in computing an average over some posterior distribution, or in determining the norm...
