[Question] Train a multi-input multi-output model with corregionalization.

[david-vicente]

I managed to train a multi-input single-output with no issues. Consider the fake data:

x1 = -5:0.8:5
x2 = -5:0.8:5

xx1 = vec([i for i in x1, j in x2])
xx2 = vec([j for i in x1, j in x2])

X = [x1 x2]

h(x, y) = 10 * (sin(x^2 + y^2) / (x^2 + y^2)) + 10
Y = [h(i,j) for (i,j) in zip(xx1, xx2)];

i simply used this model

kernel = KernelFunctions.SqExponentialKernel()
m = GP(X, Y, kernel,opt_noise=false)

Now imagine that I want to a multi-output setting, such that my data is now

x1 = -5:0.8:5
x2 = -5:0.8:5

xx1 = vec([i for i in x1, j in x2])
xx2 = vec([j for i in x1, j in x2])

X = [x1 x2]

h(x, y) = 10 * (sin(x^2 + y^2) / (x^2 + y^2)) + 10
g(x, y) = -1 / (x^2 + y^2 + 1) + 10

y1 = [h(i,j) for (i,j) in zip(xx1, xx2)];
y2 = [g(i,j) for (i,j) in zip(xx1, xx2)];

Y = [y1 y2]

How should I proceed? There aren't any examples for this case in the docs.

I also noticed that the signatures of the constructors for MOARGP, MOSVGP an MOVGP require that the input labels variable y is a AbstractVector{<:AbstractArray}, so we can't pass a Matrix.

Hi, you're right, there's unfortunately no example for multiple output. Given your provided example you can do MOVGP(X, [y1, y2], kernel, Gaussian Likelihood(), AnalyticVI(), 2) If you want to have an analytic solution I would however recommend you having a look at https://github.com/JuliaGaussianProcesses/AbstractGPs.jl/pull/30

Trying your suggestion gives me:
