hybrid model
Mixed-method framework
A hybrid model combines two or more distinct approaches, systems, or methods into a single framework.
In business, it often describes work arrangements mixing remote and in-office time: We're on a hybrid model—three days in the office, two from home.
In machine learning, hybrid models blend different algorithms.
In automotive contexts, hybrid refers to vehicles using both electric and combustion power, though these are usually just called hybrids rather than hybrid models.
