Generate priors for Gaussian process (GP) regression, classification, or combined unknown constraint models
prior.GP(m, cov = c("isotropic", "separable", "sim"))
prior.CGP(m, cov = c("isotropic", "separable", "sim"))
prior.ConstGP(m, cov.GP = c("isotropic", "separable", "sim"),
cov.CGP = cov.GP)
a valid prior object for the appropriate GP model;
By making the output $drate
and/or $grate
values negative causes the corresponding lengthscale d
parameter(s) and nugget d
parameter to be fixed at the
reciprocal of their absolute values, respectively. This effectively
turns off inference for these values, and allows one to study the GP
predictive distribution as a function of fixed values. When both
are fixed it is sensible to use only one particle (P=1
, as an
argument to PL
)
positive scalar integer specifying the dimensionality of the input space
whether to use an "isotropic"
or "separable"
power
exponential correlation function with power 2 -- nugget included;
a single index model ("sim"
) capability is provided as “beta”
functionality; applies to both regression and classification GPs
specifies the covariance for the real-valued response in the combined unknown constraint GP model
specifies the covariance for the categorical response in the combined unknown constraint GP model

These function generate a default prior object in the correct format
for use with the other PL routines, e.g.,
init.GP
and pred.GP
. The object returned
may be modified as necessary.
The prior.ConstGP
is essentially the combination
of prior.GP
and prior.CGP
for regression and classification GP models, respectively
