New Filter method for categorical variables’ selection
It is worth noting that the variable-selection process has become an increasingly exciting challenge, given the dramatic increase in the size of databases and the number of variables to be explored and modelized. Therefore, several strategies and methods have been developed with the aim of selecting the minimum number of variables while preserving as much information for the interest variable o...
متن کاملLinear latent structure analysis and modelling of multiple categorical variables
Linear latent structure analysis is a new approach for investigation of population heterogeneity using high-dimensional categorical data. In this approach, the population is represented by a distribution of latent vectors, which play the role of heterogeneity variables, and individual characteristics are represented by the expectation of this vector conditional on individual response patterns. ...
متن کاملTesting for Association between Categorical Variables with Multiple-Response Data
Some survey questions provide respondents with a list of possible answers and instructions to "mark all that apply." This paper presents methods for determining when the responses to a mark-allthatapply question are associated with the responses to a standard question whose answers fall in one of several mutually exclusive categories. Such data originate from many sources including large-scale ...
متن کاملVisualising and modelling changes in categorical variables in longitudinal studies
BACKGROUND Graphical techniques can provide visually compelling insights into complex data patterns. In this paper we present a type of lasagne plot showing changes in categorical variables for participants measured at regular intervals over time and propose statistical models to estimate distributions of marginal and transitional probabilities. METHODS The plot uses stacked bars to show the ...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Travel System Patterns
Due to population growth in urban areas, especially in the capital cities in developing countries, the use of private vehicles are increasing, leading to many problems such as congestion, pollution, noise, long travel time, high travel cost and more side effects. In such circumstances government policy would encourage people to use public transportation. In the meantime, employing the Intellige...
