"This book presents recent developments in the theory and application of latent variable models (LVMs) by some of the most prominent researchers in the field. Topics covered involve a range of LVM frameworks including item response theory, structural equation modeling, factor an…
This book provides methods and applications of latent class analysis, and the following topics are taken up in the focus of discussion: basic latent structure models in a framework of generalized linear models, exploratory latent class analysis, latent class analysis with ordere…
Latent factor analysis models are an effective type of machine learning model for addressing high-dimensional and sparse matrices, which are encountered in many big-data-related industrial applications. The performance of a latent factor analysis model relies heavily on appropri…
