Perspectives on Latent Factor Indeterminacy and its Implications for Data Representation

arXiv:2606.28854v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The common factor analytic model is related to Helmholtz and Boltzmann machines, can be conceived as a linear autoencoder, or can be thought of as a single-hidden-layer generative neural network. We thus consider it a basal generative representation learner that can be us
