Tutorial for Bayesian Factor Models
贝叶斯因子模型教程
Bayesian Factor Models (BFM) are well-established models that decompose the observed variability in a set of mean-zero, independent, and uncorrelated factors (random effects). While Factor Analysis (FA) was introduced in 1904 by Spearman, there has been renewed interest in inferential and computational methods that can adapt to large and complex modern data sets that are now routinely collected in a variety of applications. We provide reproducible, harmonized, and fast…
