While the continuous cases provide more intuitive extrema, derivation of the discrete case for higher moments is not as simple as deriving the continuous case and discretizing.
Our proposed BN with logit link function can model categorical variables and discretized continuous variables simultaneously, while discretization procedure may cause loss of information.
When solving the CH equation via the finite element method (FEM), the domain is discretized by C1-continuous basis functions or the equation is split into a pair of second-order PDEs, and discretized via C0-continuous basis functions.
By the pretreatment of map and location trace data, the plane map for continuous space was discretized and divided into several regions based on the BLD of map or road network data.
Then, the continuous attributes are discretized, and the condition attributes are reduced.
However, it does imply an inevitable loss of information, as continuous variables are discretized and often binarized.
To find the shared low-dimensional subspace across multiple data types, Shen et al. proposed a latent model iCluster + based on probabilistic principal component analysis, which used generalized linear models to transform continuous, discretized and count variables as a sparse linear regression on a set of latent driving factors.
In order to reduce the computational cost for problems possessing translational or rotational homogeneities, we spatially average the governing equations along the direction of symmetry and discretize the continuous phase on two-dimensional or axi-symmetric grids, respectively.
The numeric value of the total anesthetic dose (continuous and PCA) was discretized into three symbolic values: "low," "medium," and "high".
