缺失数据下广义潜因子模型的初始化、隐式正则化与推断AI 解读

Generalized latent factor models provide a flexible framework for analyzing high-dimensional non-Gaussian data, but principled estimation and uncertainty quantification under missingness remain substantially less developed. We develop a theory that connects a computationally tractable nonconvex procedure directly to statistical inference for nonlinear latent factor models with exponential-family links and partially observed entries. Our procedure combines a link-aware…

超越局部独立：具有共享块结构的高维潜类别图模型AI 解读

Latent class models are central tools for multivariate categorical data from heterogeneous populations, but their standard local-independence assumption is often unrealistic in modern high-dimensional applications. We propose a high-dimensional latent class graphical model for ordinal responses with block-structured local dependence. The model retains the interpretability and parsimony of classical latent class analysis by imposing a shared block partition of variables,…

可解释二元剖面的贝叶斯潜在类别回归AI 解读

High-dimensional categorical data arise in diverse scientific domains and are often accompanied by covariates. Latent class regression models are routinely used in such settings, reducing dimensionality by assuming conditional independence of the categorical variables given a single latent class that depends on covariates through a logistic regression model. However, such methods become unreliable as the dimensionality increases. To address this, we propose Bayesian latent…

离散因果表示学习AI 解读

Causal representation learning seeks to uncover causal relationships among high-level latent variables from low-level, entangled, and noisy observations. Existing approaches often either rely on deep neural networks, which lack interpretability and formal guarantees, or impose restrictive assumptions like linearity, continuous-only observations, and strong structural priors. These limitations particularly challenge applications with a large number of discrete latent…

观测数据中有效且高效的两阶段潜在子组分析AI 解读

Subgroup analysis evaluates treatment effects across multiple sub-populations. When subgroups are defined by latent memberships inferred from imperfect measurements, the analysis typically involves two inter-connected models, a latent class model and a subgroup outcome model. The classical one-stage framework, which models the joint distribution of the two models, may be infeasible with observational data containing many confounders. The two-stage framework, which first…
