Kriging::fit

Description

Fit a Kriging Object using Given Observations

Usage

  • Python

    # k = Kriging(kernel=...)
    k.fit(y, X,
          regmodel = "constant",
          normalize = False,
          optim = "BFGS",
          objective = "LL",
          parameters = None,
          noise = None)
    
  • R

    # k = Kriging(kernel=...)
    k$fit(y, X,
          regmodel = "constant",
          normalize = FALSE,
          optim = "BFGS",
          objective = "LL",
          parameters = NULL,
          noise = NULL)
    
  • Matlab/Octave

    % k = Kriging(kernel=...)
    k.fit(y, X,
          regmodel = "constant",
          normalize = false,
          optim = "BFGS",
          objective = "LL",
          parameters = [],
          noise = [])
    
  • Julia

    # k = Kriging("matern5_2")
    fit(k, y, X,
        regmodel   = "constant",
        normalize  = false,
        optim      = "BFGS",
        objective  = "LL",
        parameters = nothing,
        noise      = nothing)
    

Arguments

Argument

Description

y

Numeric vector of response values.

X

Numeric matrix of input design.

regmodel

Universal Kriging linear trend: "constant", "linear", "interactive", "quadratic".

normalize

Logical. If TRUE both the input matrix X and the response y in normalized to take values in the interval \([0, 1]\) .

optim

Character giving the Optimization method used to fit hyper-parameters. Possible values are: "BFGS" , "Newton" and "none" , the later simply keeping the values given in parameters . The method "BFGS" uses the gradient of the objective (note that "BGFS10" means 10 multi-start of BFGS). The method "Newton" uses both the gradient and the Hessian of the objective.

objective

Character giving the objective function to optimize. Possible values are: "LL" for the Log-Likelihood, "LOO" for the Leave-One-Out sum of squares and "LMP" for the Log-Marginal Posterior.

parameters

Initial values for the hyper-parameters. When provided this must be named list with elements "sigma2" and "theta" containing the initial value(s) for the variance and for the range parameters. If theta is a matrix with more than one row, each row is used as a starting point for optimization.

noise

Either a numeric vector of per-observation noise variances, "nugget" to estimate a homogeneous nugget, or NULL (default) for noise-free interpolation.

Details

The hyper-parameters (variance and vector of correlation ranges) are estimated thanks to the optimization of a criterion given by objective , using the method given in optim .

Value

No return value. The Kriging object is modified in place.

Examples

f <- function(x) 1 - 1 / 2 * (sin(12 * x) / (1 + x) + 2 * cos(7 * x) * x^5 + 0.7)
set.seed(123)
X <- as.matrix(runif(10))
y <- f(X)

k <- Kriging("matern3_2")
print("before fit")
print(k)

k$fit(y,X)
print("after fit")
print(k)
