Prediction with Gaussian Processes from Linear Regression to Linear Prediction and Beyond
نویسنده
چکیده
The main aim of this paper is to provide a tutorial on regression with Gaussian processes We start from Bayesian linear regression and show how by a change of viewpoint one can see this method as a Gaussian process predictor based on priors over functions rather than on priors over parameters This leads in to a more general discussion of Gaussian processes in section Section deals with further issues including hierarchical modelling and the setting of the parameters that control the Gaussian process the covariance functions for neural network models and the use of Gaussian processes in classi cation problems

Prediction of the main caving span in longwall mining using fuzzy MCDM technique and statistical method
Immediate roof caving in longwall mining is a complex dynamic process, and it is the core of numerous issues and challenges in this method. Hence, a reliable prediction of the strata behavior and its caving potential is imperative in the planning stage of a longwall project. The span of the main caving is the quantitative criterion that represents cavability. In this paper, two approaches are p...
متن کاملApplication of Linear Regression and Artificial NeuralNetwork for Broiler Chicken Growth Performance Prediction
This study was conducted to investigate the prediction of growth performance using linear regression and artificial neural network (ANN) in broiler chicken. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are powerful tools for modeling systems in a wide range of applications. The ANN model with a back propagation algorithm successfully learned the relationship between the inputs of metabolizable energy (kca...
متن کاملPrediction with Gaussian Processes : from Linear Regression to Linear Prediction
The main aim of this paper is to provide a tutorial on regression with Gaussian processes. We start from Bayesian linear regression, and show how by a change of viewpoint one can see this method as a Gaussian process predictor based on priors over functions, rather than on priors over parameters. This leads in to a more general discussion of Gaussian processes in section 4. Section 5 deals with...

متن کاملPrediction of the waste stabilization pond performance using linear multiple regression and multi-layer perceptron neural network: a case study of Birjand, Iran
Background: Data mining (DM) is an approach used in extracting valuable information from environmental processes. This research depicts a DM approach used in extracting some information from influent and effluent wastewater characteristic data of a waste stabilization pond (WSP) in Birjand, a city in Eastern Iran. Methods: Multiple regression (MR) and neural network (NN) models were examined u...
