Abstract: [This abstract is based on the authors' abstract.]
A hierarchical Bayesian model with conditional Gaussian stochastic process components is proposed for the prediction of the output from a computer code having both quantitative and qualitative inputs. The model assumes that the outputs corresponding to different levels of a qualitative input have similar functional behavior in the quantitative inputs. The method is compared to alternative proposals and is illustrated in a biomechanical engineering example.
