Detailed Description

A GaussianConditional functions as the node in a Bayes network. It has a set of parents y,z, etc. and implements a Gaussian probability density p(x | y, z) on x. The negative log-density is given by $ \frac{1}{2} |Rx - (d - Sy - Tz - ...)|^2 $ The mean of the conditional density is $ R^{-1}(d - Sy - Tz - ...) $. The covariance of the conditional density is given by the noise model and is constrained to be diagonal.

This is the base class for all conditional distributions/densities, which are implemented as specialized factors. This class does not store any data other than its keys. Derived classes store data such as matrices and probability tables.

The evaluate method is used to evaluate the factor, and together with logProbability is the main methods that need to be implemented in derived classes. These two methods relate to the error method in the factor by: probability(x) = k exp(-error(x)) where k is a normalization constant making \int probability(x) = \int k exp(-error(x)) == 1.0, and logProbability(x) = -(K + error(x)) i.e., K = -log(k). The normalization constant k is assumed to not depend on any argument, only (possibly) on the conditional parameters. This class provides a default negative log normalization constant negLogConstant() == 0.0.

There are four broad classes of conditionals that derive from Conditional:

◆ Combine()

template<typename ITERATOR >
static shared_ptr gtsam::GaussianConditional::Combine ( ITERATOR  firstConditional,
ITERATOR  lastConditional 
)
static

Combine several GaussianConditional into a single dense GC. The conditionals enumerated by first and last must be in increasing order, meaning that the parents of any conditional may not include a conditional coming before it.

Parameters
firstConditionalIterator to the first conditional to combine, must dereference to a shared_ptr<GaussianConditional>.
lastConditionalIterator to after the last conditional to combine, must dereference to a shared_ptr<GaussianConditional>.

The determinant is computed in log form using logDeterminant for numerical stability and then exponentiated.

Note, the covariance matrix $ \Sigma = (R^T R)^{-1} $, and hence $ \det(\Sigma) = 1 / \det(R^T R) = 1 / determinant()^ 2 $.

Convert to a likelihood factor by providing value before bar.

Definition at line 296 of file GaussianConditional.cpp.

◆ logDeterminant()

double GaussianConditional::logDeterminant ( ) const

Compute the log determinant of the R matrix.

For numerical stability, the determinant is computed in log form, so it is a summation rather than a multiplication.

Note, the covariance matrix $ \Sigma = (R^T R)^{-1} $, and hence $ \log \det(\Sigma) = - \log \det(R^T R) = - 2 logDeterminant() $.

Returns
double

Definition at line 172 of file GaussianConditional.cpp.

◆ logProbability() [1/2]

Definition at line 204 of file GaussianConditional.cpp.

◆ logProbability() [2/2]

double GaussianConditional::logProbability ( const VectorValues x) const

Calculate log-probability log(evaluate(x)) for given values x: -error(x) - 0.5 * n*log(2*pi) - 0.5 * log det(Sigma) where x is the vector of values, and Sigma is the covariance matrix. This differs from error as it is log, not negative log, and it includes the normalization constant.

Definition at line 200 of file GaussianConditional.cpp.

◆ negLogConstant()

double GaussianConditional::negLogConstant ( ) const
override

Return the negative log of the normalization constant.

normalization constant k = 1.0 / sqrt((2*pi)^n*det(Sigma)) -log(k) = 0.5 * n*log(2*pi) + 0.5 * log det(Sigma)

VectorValues GaussianConditional::solve ( const VectorValues parents) const

Solves a conditional Gaussian and writes the solution into the entries of x for each frontal variable of the conditional. The parents are assumed to have already been solved in and their values are read from x. This function works for multiple frontal variables.

Given the Gaussian conditional with log likelihood $ |R x_f - (d - S x_s)|^2 $, where $ f $ are the frontal variables and $ s $ are the separator variables of this conditional, this solve function computes $ x_f = R^{-1} (d - S x_s) $ using back-substitution.

Parameters
parentsVectorValues containing solved parents $ x_s $.
