Discrete data is categorical data, rather than continuous measurements. It can be treated as continuous data, but that ...

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 ...

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 considerable body of literature has arisen over the past 15 years for analyzing univariate repeated measures data. However, it is rare in applied biomedical research for interest to be restricted to ...

Data analysis is a fundamental process in any project. However, data can be lumped into different types, with categorical and continuous data seeming almost opposed at first glance. That said, ...

Physicists have developed a quantum machine learning algorithm that can handle infinite dimensions—that is, it works with continuous variables (which have an infinite number of possible values on a ...
