f: Predictor Function

In NORMA: Builds General Noise SVRs

Description

Computes the predictor function of a general noise SVR based on NORMA optimization.

Usage

f(point, t, x, alpha, beta, f_0, kernel = function(x, y, gamma) {    
  exp(-gamma * (norm(x - y, type = "2")^2)) }, gamma, no_beta)

Arguments

point	numeric with the value of the point where we want to evaluate the predictor function.
t	time parameter value indicating the iteration we want to consider.
x	matrix containing training points. Each row must be a point.
alpha	matrix representing α parameters of NORMA optimization in each iteration, one per row.
beta	numeric representing β parameter of NORMA optimization in each iteration.
f_0	initial hypothesis.
kernel	kernel function to use.
gamma	gaussian kernel parameter γ.
no_beta	boolean indicating if an offset b is used (FALSE) or not (TRUE).

Value

Returns a numeric representing the prediction value.
