We consider the contextual fraction as a quantitative measure of contextuality of empirical models, i.e. tables of probabilities of measurement outcomes in an experimental scenario. It provides a general way to compare the degree of…

Regression models with a response variable taking values in a Hilbert space and hybrid covariates are considered. This means two sets of regressors are allowed, one of finite dimension and a second one functional with values in a Hilbert…

Hierarchical categorical variables often exhibit many levels (high granularity) and many classes within each level (high dimensionality). This may cause overfitting and estimation issues when including such covariates in a predictive model.…
