Which latent variable model is better to find hidden variable?
Currently, I am exploring the concept of latent variable
for regression type datasets
.
I have gone through literature of few of the methods and models
used in finding latent variable
, like: EM algorithms, Partial least square regression, Latent semantic analysis, Mixed Effect models (linear-nonlinear), HMM, and there are many more!!
For Example:
volume DataFrame head is
length width volume
0 1.395702 4.822958 40.821677
1 5.761620 9.912682 242.571731
2 3.444930 2.111199 18.904144
3 6.236642 7.609429 425.838818
4 7.270517 1.106117 39.883937
In the above mentioned dataset, height
, type-of-object
, units
and other parameters are missing. As mentioned by people previously, it is difficult to regenerate them as such but there is a possibility of acknowledging them using latent variable
.
Hence, I would like to ask which method
or model
will be more suited for such kind of dataset?
Thanks!!
