Machine Learning ! ! ! ! !SrihariProb Distributions and Stochastic Processes!• A probability distribution describes the distributionsof scalars (x) and vectors (x)• A stochastic process describes distribution offunctions f(x)– Can think of a function as a very long vector!• Each entry in the vector is f (x) which is the value of function at x• A Gaussian process is a generalization of Gaussiandistributions where it is describing the distribution offunctions!• Since the vector is infinite-dimensional we constrain it toonly those points x corresponding to training and test points!41
