I see this script is adapted from the code for the paper PES, and these two lines are not modified. I see that b is from a uniform distribution in (0, 2*pi), however, I do not understand how this W comes from? why can we element-wise multiply the square root of l the length scale ?

Dear Dr. Wang,
I see this script is adapted from the code for the paper PES, and these two lines are not modified. I see that
b
is from a uniform distribution in (0, 2*pi), however, I do not understand how thisW
comes from? why can we element-wise multiply the square root ofl
the length scale ?Thank you for your time and help in advance.
