Wonder if this will survive? I don't know anything about it just had it mentioned as an alternate technique to a neural net and random forests. crandles (talk) 22:23, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect elsewhere?

Perhaps this should just be redirected elsewhere perhaps to Bayes estimator?

Maybe the following could help: "the Bayesian emulator ideas introduced by Kennedy and O'Hagan, now being developed in the climate context by Jonty Rougier and people at the Hadley Centre. I think this is probably what "Gaussian process emulators" refers to in your paragraph."

I have provided a link in the article to Anthony O'Hagan, Marc C. Kennedy and Jeremy E. Oakley paper.

I have expanded this somewhat, at least providing a better meaning and context. However, it is not obvious how much about applications should be put here rather than in a more general article about statistical analysis of computer experiments. I don't think that just adding to computer experiment would be suitable. There seems enough special context here to make it good to have this separate from Bayes estimator.
