文摘In the research of scientific field, it is often necessary to continuously observe different indicators of individuals at different times and analyze the observed results. Among them, variables are mainly of two types: ordered variables and continuous variables. When analyzing data for different types of variables, it is necessary to consider the correlation between multiple indicators of an individual, and often perform joint analysis on variable observation data of multiple indicators of an individual at different times, in order to achieve more accurate and true analysis results. Joint analysis often yields more information than separate analysis of various variables. In this paper, the ordered variable and the continuous variable are numerically modeled. Based on the potential variable model, the multivariate longitudinal data containing the ordered variable and the continuous variable are jointly analyzed, and the approximate value of the edge likelihood can be obtained by using the method of numerical integration.
