mgpr: Multivariate Gaussian process regression (MGPR) model

In GPFDA: Gaussian Process for Functional Data Analysis

Multivariate Gaussian process regression (MGPR) model

Description

Multivariate Gaussian process regression where each of the N outputs is unidimensional. The multivariate output is allowed to have multiple independent realisations.

Usage

mgpr(Data, m = NULL, meanModel = 0, mu = NULL)

Arguments

Data	List of two elements: 'input' and 'response'. The element 'input' is a list of N vectors, where each vector represents the input covariate values for a particular output. The element 'response' is the corresponding list of N matrices (if there are multiple realisations) or vectors (for a single realisation) representing the response variables.
m	If Subset of Data is to be used in the estimation, m denotes the subset size. It cannot be larger than the total sample size. Default to NULL (Subsetting is not used).
meanModel	Type of mean function applied to all outputs. It can be 0 Zero mean function for each output. 1 Constant mean function to be estimated for each output. 't' Linear model for the mean function of each output. 'avg' The average across replications is used as the mean function of each output. This can only be used if there are more than two realisations observed at the same input values. Default to 0. If argument 'mu' is specified, then 'meanModel' will be set to 'userDefined'.
mu	Vector of concatenated mean function values defined by the user. Default to NULL.

Value

A list containing:

fitted.mean

Fitted values for the training data

fitted.sd

Standard deviation of the fitted values for training data

N

Number of response variables

X

Original input variables

Y

Original response

idx

Index vector identifying to which output the elements of concatenated vectors correspond to.

Cov

Covariance matrix

mean

Concatenated mean function

meanModel

Mean model used for each output

meanLinearModel

'lm' object for each output if the linear regression model is used for the mean functions. NULL otherwise.
