Gaussian Processes For Machine Learning

A comprehensive and self-contained introduction to Gaussian processes which provide a principled practical probabilistic approach to learning in kernel machinesGaussian processes (GPs) provide a principled practical probabilistic approach to learning in kernel machines GPs have received increased attention in the machine-learning community over the past decade and this book provides a long-needed systematic and unified treatment of theoretical and practical aspects of GPs in machine learning The treatment is comprehensive and self-contained targeted at researchers and students in machine learning and applied statistics The book deals with the supervised-learning problem for both regression and classification and includes detailed algorithms A wide variety of covariance (kernel) functions
