Surrogate Models for Mixed Discrete-Continuous Variables
Large-scale computational models have become common tools for analyzing complex manmade systems. However, when coupled with optimization or uncertainty quantification methods in order to conduct extensive model exploration and analysis, the computational expense quickly becomes intractable. Furthermore, these models may have both continuous and discrete parameters. One common approach to mitiga...
متن کاملLikelihood Factorizations for Mixed Discrete and Continuous Variables
Some general remarks are made about likelihood factorizations, distinguishing parameter-based factorizations and concentration-graph factorizations. Two parametric families of distributions for mixed discrete and continuous variables are discussed. Conditions on graphs are given for the circumstances under which their joint analysis can be split into separate analyses, each involving a reduced ...
متن کاملMaximum entropy inference for mixed continuous-discrete variables
We represent knowledge by using probability distributions of mixed continuous and discrete variables. In the case of complete knowledge of the joint distribution of all items, one can compute arbitrary conditional distributions, which may be used for prediction. However, in many cases only some marginal distributions, inverse probabilities, or moments are known. Under these conditions, a princi...
متن کاملMix-nets: Factored Mixtures of Gaussians in Bayesian Networks with Mixed Continuous And Discrete Variables
Recently developed techniques have made it possible to quickly learn accurate probability density functions from data in low-dimensional continuous spaces. In particular, mixtures of Gaussians can be fitted to data very quickly using an accelerated EM algorithm that employs multiresolution d-trees (Moore, 1999). In this paper, we propose a kind of Bayesian network in which low-dimensional mixtu...
متن کاملA MODEL FOR MIXED CONTINUOUS AND DISCRETE RESPONSES WITH POSSIBILITY OF MISSING RESPONSES
A model for missing data in mixed binary and continuous responses, which can be used on cross-sectional data, is presented. In this model response indicator for the binary response can be dependent on the continuous response. A closed form for the likelihood is found. For data with a complicated pattern of missing responses some new residuals are also proposed. The model of multiplicative heter...
