<h2>
Purpose
</h2>
Evaluate Bayesian regularisation for network forward propagation.

Synopsis
</h2>
<PRE>
extra = fevbayes(net, y, a, x, t, x_test)
[extra, invhess] = fevbayes(net, y, a, x, t, x_test, invhess)
</PRE>


<p><h2>
Description
</h2>
<CODE>extra = fevbayes(net, y, a, x, t, x_test)</CODE> takes a network data structure
<CODE>net</CODE> together with a set of hidden unit activations <CODE>a</CODE> from
test inputs <CODE>x_test</CODE>, training data inputs <CODE>x</CODE> and <CODE>t</CODE> and
outputs a matrix of extra information <CODE>extra</CODE> that consists of
error bars (variance)
for a regression problem or moderated outputs for a classification problem.
The optional argument (and return value)
<CODE>invhess</CODE> is the inverse of the network Hessian
computed on the training data inputs and targets.  Passing it in avoids
recomputing it, which can be a significant saving for large training sets.

<p>This is called by network-specific functions such as <CODE>mlpevfwd</CODE> which
are needed since the return values (predictions and hidden unit activations)
for different network types are in different orders (for good reasons).
