Efficient Sampling of Gaussian Processes under Linear Inequality ConstraintsBrahmantio, Bayu Beta January 2021 (has links)
In this thesis, newer Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms are implemented and compared in terms of their efficiency in the context of sampling from Gaussian processes under linear inequality constraints. Extending the framework of Gaussian process that uses Gibbs sampler, two MCMC algorithms, Exact Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) and Analytic Elliptical Slice Sampling (ESS), are used to sample values of truncated multivariate Gaussian distributions that are used for Gaussian process regression models with linear inequality constraints. In terms of generating samples from Gaussian processes under linear inequality constraints, the proposed methods generally produce samples that are less correlated than samples from the Gibbs sampler. Time-wise, Analytic ESS is proven to be a faster choice while Exact HMC produces the least correlated samples.
