LVGP_predict {LVGP}

The Prediction Function of LVGP Package

Description

Predicts the output and associated uncertainties of the GP model fitted by LVGP_fit.

Usage

LVGP_predict(X_new, model, MSE_on = 0)

Arguments

X_new

Matrix or vector containing the input(s) where the predictions are to be made. Each row is an input vector.

model

The LVGP model fitted by LVGP_fit.

MSE_on

A scalar indicating whether the uncertainty (i.e., mean squared error MSE) is calculated. Set to a non-zero value to calculate MSE.

Value

A prediction list containing the following components:

• Y_hat A vector containing the mean prediction values

• MSE A vector containing the prediction uncertainty (i.e., the covariance or covariance matrix for the output(s) at prediction location(s))
