Fast hierarchical Gaussian processes
While the framework of Gaussian process priors for functions is very flexible and has a number of advantages, its use within a fully Bayesian hierarchical modeling framework has been limited due to computational constraints. Most often, simple models are fit, with hyperparameters learned by maximum likelihood. But this approach understates the posterior uncertainty in inference. We consider pri...
متن کاملControversy in mechanistic modelling with Gaussian processes
Parameter inference in mechanistic models based on non-affine differential equations is computationally onerous, and various faster alternatives based on gradient matching have been proposed. A particularly promising approach is based on nonparametric Bayesian modelling with Gaussian processes, which exploits the fact that a Gaussian process is closed under differentiation. However, two alterna...
متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Modelling with Gaussian Processes
We present a novel method for Gaussian process regression in a hierarchical Bayesian framework. The method is suited for cases where data from separate, but related problem scenarios is available. In the hierarchical framework, kernel matrices on a fixed set of input points (transduction) can be learned from data using a simple and efficient EM algorithm. This does not require a parametric form...
متن کاملThe Rate of Entropy for Gaussian Processes
In this paper, we show that in order to obtain the Tsallis entropy rate for stochastic processes, we can use the limit of conditional entropy, as it was done for the case of Shannon and Renyi entropy rates. Using that we can obtain Tsallis entropy rate for stationary Gaussian processes. Finally, we derive the relation between Renyi, Shannon and Tsallis entropy rates for stationary Gaussian proc...
متن کاملModeling Supernova Light Curves: An Application of Hierarchical Gaussian Processes
With large data collection projects such as the Dark Energy Survey underway, data from distant Supernovae (SNe) are becoming increasingly available. As the quantity of information increases, the ability to quickly and accurately classify SNe has become essential. An area of great interest is the development of a strictly photometric classification mechanism. The first step in the advancement of...
