This repository contains Python and Matlab implementations of state-space deep Gaussian processes (SS-DGPs).
The so-called SS-DGPs are a class of non-statioanry stochastic processes that are governed by stochastic differential equations. These processes are particularly useful in modelling ill-behaving functions/signals that have time-varying characteristics. Moreover, thanks to their Markovian structure, regression problems associated with the SS-DGP priors can be efficiently solved in linear computational time (w.r.t. the number of data) by using Bayesian filters and smoothers.
The figure below illustrates a few samples drawn from a SS-DGP of Matern family, where you can see the manifestation of temporal non-stationary behaviours of process U(t)
.
You can find two folders ./matlab
and ./python_notebooks
which contain implementations of SS-DGPs in Matlab and Python (notebook), respectively. Please navigate to these folders and refer to their readme files to see on how to use the codes in practice.
