src: Fix the evidence calculation for some cases. #66

Closed legordian closed 9 years ago

legordian commented 9 years ago

Fix the evidence calculation for the case of large covariance matrices (i.e. several hundred parameters). Because of numerical limitations, the determinant of the covariance matrix could become infinite, ruining the evidence calculation. Fix this by calculating the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix and adding up the logarithms of them which could still yield a sensible number.
