Treed Gaussian Process Models for Classification
Recognizing the successes of treed Gaussian process (TGP) models as an interpretable and thrifty model for nonstationary regression, we seek to extend the model to classification. By combining Bayesian CART and the latent variable approach to classification via Gaussian processes (GPs), we develop a Bayesian model averaging scheme to traverse the full space of classification TGPs (CTGPs). We il...
متن کاملBayesian treed Gaussian process models
This paper explores nonparametric and semiparametric nonstationary modeling methodologies that couple stationary Gaussian processes and (limiting) linear models with treed partitioning. Partitioning is a simple but effective method for dealing with nonstationarity. Mixing between full Gaussian processes and simple linear models can yield a more parsimonious spatial model while significantly red...
متن کاملCategorical Inputs, Sensitivity Analysis, Optimization and Importance Tempering with tgp Version 2, an R Package for Treed Gaussian Process Models
This document describes the new features in version 2.x of the tgp package for R, implementing treed Gaussian process (GP) models. The topics covered include methods for dealing with categorical inputs and excluding inputs from the tree or GP part of the model; fully Bayesian sensitivity analysis for inputs/covariates; sequential optimization of black-box functions; and a new Monte Carlo method...
متن کاملPattern Search Optimization with a Treed Gaussian Process Oracle
This work combines pattern search optimization with a statistical emulator based on Treed Gaussian Processes (TGP) to create a new hybrid algorithm. The goal is to use the global probabilistic view provided by TGP to inform the local pattern search and form a more intelligent optimization algorithm. We also propose ways in which the emulator can be used to gain information about the objective f...
متن کاملBayesian Nonstationary Gaussian Process Models for Large Datasets via Treed Process Convolutions
Spatial modeling often relies upon stationary Gaussian processes (GPs), but the assumption that the correlation structure is independent of the spatial location is invalid in many applications. Various nonstationary GP models have been developed to solve this problem, however, many of them become impractical when the sample size is large. To tackle this problem, we develop a process convolution...
