www.statmodel.comIntroduction 3 Models in Mplus can include continuous latent variables, categorical latent variables, or a combination of continuous and categorical latent variables. In the figure above, Ellipse A describes models with only continuous latent variables. Ellipse B describes models with only categorical latent variables.
An Introduction to Logistic and Probit Regression Models
www.liberalarts.utexas.eduModeling a Binary Outcome • Latent Variable Approach • We can think of y* as the underlying latent propensity that y=1 • Example 1: For the binary variable, heart attack/no heart attack, y* is the propensity for a heart attack. • Example 2: For the binary variable, in/out of the labor force, y* is the propensity to be in the labor force. ...

The objective of these approaches is to capture information about interindividual differences in intraindividual change over time (Nesselroade, 1991).

Latent Dirichlet Allocation
ai.stanford.edu3. Latent Dirichlet allocation Latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) is a generative probabilistic model of a corpus. The basic idea is that documents are represented as random mixtures over latent topics, where each topic is charac-terized by a distribution over words.1 LDA assumes the following generative process for each document w in a corpus D: 1.
