Descriptor Spanish:

Análisis de Clases Latentes

Spanish from Spain

Descriptor	análisis de clases latentes
Entry term(s)	análisis probabilístico de semántica latente análisis semántico latente probabilístico modelizaciones con ecuaciones estructurales modelizaciones con variables latentes modelización con ecuaciones estructurales modelización con variables latentes modelo de clases latentes modelos de clases latentes
Scope note:	Algoritmo estadístico utilizado para analizar grupos de variables observadas mediante la construcción de un segmento categórico no observado o latente basado en un análisis ponderado y en las probabilidades medias. Estas clases latentes se usan para inferir variables cuyas relaciones no se observan directamente. En investigación biomédica se usa a menudo para la categorización de datos que permite la determinación de grupos de síntomas.

Scope note:

A statistical algorithm used to analyze clusters of observed variables by constructing categorical unobserved or latent segment based on weighted analysis and the average probabilities. Such latent classes are used to infer variables whose relationships are not directly observed. In biomedical research, it is often used to categorize data that allows the determination of symptom clusters.
