An Introduction to Latent Class Growth Analysis and Growth ...
www.statmodel.comThe general latent variable growth mixture model can be represented as follows: The growth mixture model in Figure 2 consists of the following components: (i) a univariate latent growth curve of observed variable T with an intercept (I) and slope (S), (ii) a categorical variable for class (C), and (iii) covariates or predictor variables (X).

Lecture 9: Hidden Markov Models
www.cs.mcgill.caHidden Markov Models (HMMs) Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are used for situations in which: { The data consists of a sequence of observations { The observations depend (probabilistically) on the internal state of a dynamical system { The true state of the system is unknown (i.e., it is a hidden or latent variable) There are numerous applications ...
