[docs]class LinearKernel(Kernel): r""" Computes a covariance matrix based on the Linear kernel between inputs :math:`\mathbf{x_1}` and :math:`\mathbf{x_2}`: .. math:: \begin{equation*} k_\text{Linear}(\mathbf{x_1}, \mathbf{x_2}) = v\mathbf{x_1}^\top \mathbf{x_2}. \end{equation*} where * :math:`v` is a variance parameter. .. note:: To implement this efficiently, we use a :obj:`gpytorch.lazy.RootLazyTensor` during training and a :class:`gpytorch.lazy.MatmulLazyTensor` during test. These lazy tensors represent matrices of the form :math:`K = XX^{\top}` and :math:`K = XZ^{\top}`. This makes inference efficient because a matrix-vector product :math:`Kv` can be computed as :math:`Kv=X(X^{\top}v)`, where the base multiply :math:`Xv` takes only :math:`O(nd)` time and space. Args: variance_prior (:class:`gpytorch.priors.Prior`): Prior over the variance parameter (default `None`). variance_constraint (Constraint, optional): Constraint to place on variance parameter. Default: `Positive`. active_dims (list): List of data dimensions to operate on. `len(active_dims)` should equal `num_dimensions`.
