Properties of latent variable network models
We derive properties of Latent Variable Models for networks, a broad class of models that includes the widely-used Latent Position Models. These include the average degree distribution, clustering coefficient, average path length and degree correlations. We introduce the Gaussian Latent Position Model, and derive analytic expressions and asymptotic approximations for its network properties. We ...
متن کاملLatent Variable Models
A powerful approach to probabilistic modelling involves supplementing a set of observed variables with additional latent, or hidden, variables. By defining a joint distribution over visible and latent variables, the corresponding distribution of the observed variables is then obtained by marginalization. This allows relatively complex distributions to be expressed in terms of more tractable joi...
متن کاملTensors and Latent Variable Models
In this paper we discuss existing and new connections between latent variable models from machine learning and tensors (multi-way arrays) from multilinear algebra. A few ideas have been developed independently in the two communities. However, there are still many useful but unexplored links and ideas that could be borrowed from one of the communities and used in the other. We will start our dis...
متن کاملIsotone additive latent variable models
For manifest variables with additive noise and for a given number of latent variables with an assumed distribution, we propose to nonparametrically estimate the association between latent and manifest variables. Our estimation is a two step procedure: first it employs standard factor analysis to estimate the latent variables as theoretical quantiles of the assumed distribution; second, it emplo...
متن کاملHigh Performance Latent Variable Models
Latent variable models have accumulated a considerable amount of interest from the industry and academia for their versatility in a wide range of applications. A large amount of effort has been made to develop systems that is able to extend the systems to a large scale, in the hope to make use of them on industry scale data. In this paper, we describe a system that operates at a scale orders of...
