Consider the generalized linear least squares (GLS) problem $\min\|Lx\|_2 \ \mathrm{s.t.} \ \|M(Ax-b)\|_2=\min$. The weighted pseudoinverse $A_{ML}^{\dag}$ is the matrix that maps $b$ to the minimum 2-norm solution of this GLS problem. By…

Standard GPs offer a flexible modelling tool for well-behaved processes. However, deviations from Gaussianity are expected to appear in real world datasets, with structural outliers and shocks routinely observed. In these cases GPs can fail…
The multivariate errors-in-variables regression model is applicable when both dependent and independent variables in a multivariate regression are subject to measurement errors. In such a scenario it is long established that the traditional…
