The novel Polynomial Chaos Expanded Gaussian Process (PCEGP) machine learning approach leverages polynomial chaos expansion to calculate input-dependent hyperparameters of the Gaussian process, providing a mathematically interpretable method for generating locally adapted models. This addresses the limitation of global models failing to provide accurate predictions in local areas. The PCEGP model performance is compared to different algorithms in benchmark tests for regression tasks, demonstrating low prediction errors and often competitive or superior results. A key advantage of the presented model is its transparency and traceability in calculating hyperparameters and model predictions.

A team of researchers has developed a new way to create models that work well both globally and locally. They call it Polynomial Chaos Expanded Gaussian Process, or PCEGP for short. Right now, many models are good at making predictions everywhere, but they can struggle when trying to make accurate predictions in small areas. The PCEGP model tries to fix this by using special math techniques to create a model that works well in both big and small areas. They tested their model against other methods and found that it did just as well or even better than those models.
