We propose a latent variable model for mixed discrete and continuous outcomes. The model accommodates any mixture of outcomes from an exponential family and allows for arbitrary covariate effects, as ...

A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . . For example, stock prices are discrete random variables, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This paper studies a new class of Z-valued random variables, called beta unimodal, which are 'dot products' (in the sense of Steutel and van ...

Discrete structures are omnipresent in mathematics, computer science, statistical physics, optimisation and models of natural phenomena. For instance, complex random graphs serve as a model for social ...

Many physical platforms, including photons, ions, atoms, solid state and superconducting devices, and nuclear magnetic resonance 1, are being explored with the view of constructing a quantum computer.

Classifying a variable as a particular type of data is important when considering how to present the data. Data can be presented in a number of ways, which depends on the type of variable and the uses ...
