NuggetKriging::logMargPost

Description

Get the Maximized Log-Marginal Posterior Density of a NuggetKriging Model

Usage

  • Python

    # k = NuggetKriging(...)
    k.logMargPost()
    
  • R

    # k = NuggetKriging(...)
    k$logMargPost()
    
  • Matlab/Octave

    % k = NuggetKriging(...)
    k.logMargPost()
    

Details

Using the jointly robust prior \(\pi_{\texttt{JR}}(\boldsymbol{\theta},\, \alpha, \,\sigma^2, \, \boldsymbol{\beta})\) the marginal or integrated posterior is the function of \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\) and \(\alpha\) obtained from the posterior density by marginalizing out the GP variance \(\sigma^2\) and the vector \(\boldsymbol{\beta}\) of trend coefficients. See logMargPostFun.NuggetKriging for the log-marginal posterior density. By maximizing this function w.r.t. \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\) and \(\alpha\) we get estimated correlation ranges which are warranted to be postitive and finite \(0 < \theta_k < \infty\). The estimated variance ratio is such that \(0 < \alpha < 1\).

Value

The maximal value of the log-marginal posterior density, corresponding to the estimated value of the vector \([\boldsymbol{\theta},\,\alpha]\) where \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\) is the vector of correlation ranges and \(\alpha := \sigma^2/ (\sigma^2 + \tau^2)\) is the ratio of variance \(\texttt{GP} / (\texttt{GP} + \texttt{nugget})\).

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) + 0.1 * rnorm(nrow(X))

k <- NuggetKriging(y, X, kernel = "matern3_2", objective="LMP")
print(k)

k$logMargPost()
