Task 0: Warming Up
The following code block visualises the difference between different methods of performing
linear regression.

datapoints. Are there any ways we can improve the regression?
Task 1.1
Explain why the above linear regression fails.
-----Your answer here-----
Task 1.2
What kind of features would lead to a better result? Why?
-----Your answer here-----
Task1.3
Implement featurise function that takes raw datapoints as the input and output a
reasonable design matrix Φ according to the method you mentioned in Task 1.2.

Task 2: Estimating noise variance through the marginal
likelihood
One commonly asked question in Bayesian linear regression is how can we define the noise
level of the target. In previous questions, we set the noise variance in lr_bayes to be 0.01
def featurise(x):
# TODO: Try to come up with proper features
features = add_bias_col(x) # change this!
return features
x_train_feat = featurise(x_train)
x_valid_feat = featurise(x_valid)
x_plot_feat = featurise(x_plot)
# repeat but now with features
# MLE
theta_mle = lr_mle(x_train_feat, y_train)
f_mle = predict_point(x_plot_feat, theta_mle)
# MAP
alpha = 0.1
theta_map = lr_map(x_train_feat, y_train, alpha)
f_map = predict_point(x_plot_feat, theta_map)
# exact Bayesian
theta_mean, theta_cov = lr_bayes(x_train_feat, y_train, alpha)
f_bayes_mean, f_bayes_cov = predict_bayes(
x_plot_feat, theta_mean, theta_cov)

- a fixed constant. But intuitively, after we have observed some datapoints, the noise level
can actually be inferred or estimated. This tasks is designed for you to investigate the
marginal likelihood (a.k.a. model evidence) and how we can use this to pick the noise
variance.
Task 2.1
Implement the negative log marginal likelihood, given the noise level of the likelihood,
training inputs and outputs, and the prior variance. We can pick prior_var using the
same procedure, but assume prior_var = 0.5 for this exercise. The form of the
marginal likelihood is provided in Week 7's lecture slides.
In [ ]:
Task 2.2
Select the most appropriate noise level that minimises the negative log marginal likelihood. In
practice, we can do this mimimisation by gradient descent, but for this exercise, we assume
we have access to a predefined set of potential noise levels and just need to pick one.
In [ ]:
Task 2.3
We visualise the predictions using the estimated noise variance, and compare to those when
the noise is very large or very small. Based on these graphs and the negative log marginal
likelihood corresponding to these noise levels, explain why finding a proper noise level of the
likelihood is important.

** Task 2.4 - Optional **
The naive implementation of the negative log marginal likelihood above would require the
inverse of an N by N matrix, which is of time complexity . This is computationally
intractable for a large dataset (large N). Can we speed this up?

Task 3: Regularisation
In machine learning, regularisation is an important technique to reduce overfitting.
Regularisation also provides better generalisation in general. This task aims to show how
regularisation affects the parameter estimates.
Task 3.1
Implement L1 , L2 . Both functions take the weight as input, output the regularisation
value and the gradient of the regularisation term (NOT THE GRADIENT OF THE ENTIRE
