Machine Learning ! ! ! ! !SrihariGeneral definition of GP!• We saw a particular example of a Gaussian process!– <strong>Linear</strong> regression using the parametric model!– With samples y= [y(x 1 ),..y(x N )] !– Assume p(w) = N(w|0,α -1 I)y(x)=w T φ(x)– Then E[y] =0 and Cov[y]=K, the Gram matrix which is equivalentto pairwise kernel values!• More generally, a Gaussian process is a probabilitydistribution over functions y (x)– Such that the set of values of y(x) evaluated at arbitrary pointsx 1 ,..,x N jointly have a multivariate Gaussian distribution!• For a single input x 1 , output y 1 is univariate Gaussian. For two inputsx 1, x 2 the output y 1, y 2 is bivariate Gaussian, etc!33
