What if you treated the information collected by that variable as really
two variables, one categorical variable indicating zero or non-zero
Good places to start:
Optimal feature extractors, that's better than PCA because you whiten your
inter class scatter and so put all inter class comparisons on the same
level. The good thing is this will also reduce your feature vector
dimensionality to c-1 (where c is # classes). PCA will not do
Corection typo: Should read 'Whiten intra class scatter'

students to take a test AND their test score
so, you have maybe 35 students in your 1 hour class that starts at 9AM ...

If it's continuous, it can't really have categories (apart from those

Hello,
Thank you very much for your advises.
I would want to play a little with Software for Flexible Bayesian
Modeling by Radford M. Neal. But information supplied by documentation
that goes with this doesn't make me clear some concepts related to
priors mentioned in the documentation itself. D

I have a continuous response variable that ranges from 0 to 750. I
only have 90 observations and 26 are at the lower limit of 0, which is
the modal category. The mean is about 60 and the median is 3; the
distribution is highly skewed, extremely kurtotic, etc. Obviously,
none of the power transf
Hi!
I am working on a linear regression model where both my x and y values
contain errors. In fact, they are repeated measurements of the same
samples -- I am doing this to see if the measuring device is working
properly. I found least square fitting formulas at

Dear EdStat readers,
During the next week (probably Friday or Monday), the EdStat list will
move to a new server. At that time, we will also start using a new

reduce the amount of spam sent to the list. In addition, the threat
That is either a sloppiness in writing or reliance on the relationship
between eigen decomposition and SVD.
SSM - square symmetric matrix
AM - arbitrary matrix
In ED, SSM = Q E Q'
In SVD, AM = P D Q'
SSM = AM' AM
= Q D P' P D Q' = Q D D Q'
= Q E Q', if E = D D
I haven't checked
