kernel_polynomial: Generating A Single Point-wise Function Using Polynomial

In IrisTeng/CVEK: Cross-Validated Kernel Ensemble

Description

Generate point-wise functions for two vectors using polynomial kernel.

Usage

kernel_polynomial(Sigma, l, p)

Arguments

Sigma	(matrix) The covariance matrix for neural network kernel.
l	(numeric) A numeric number indicating the hyperparameter (flexibility) of a specific kernel.
p	(integer) For polynomial, p is the power; for matern, v = p + 1 / 2; for rational, alpha = p.

Details

Polynomial Kernels

k(x, x')=(x \cdot x')^p

We have intercept kernel when p=0, and linear kernel when p=1.

Value

point_wise

(function) A function calculating the relevance of two vectors.
