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 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...
متن کاملCausal Probabilistic Networks with Both Discrete and Continuous Variables D Causal Probabilistic Networks with Both Discrete and Continuous Variables
An extension of the expert system shell HUGIN to include continuous variables, in the form of linear additive normally distributed variables, is presented. The theoretical foundation of the method was developed by Lauritzen (1992), whereas this report primarily focus on implementation aspects. The approach has several advantages over purely discrete systems: It enables a more natural model of t...
