%DEMGPARD Demonstrate ARD using a Gaussian Process.
%
%	Description
%	The data consists of three input variables X1, X2 and X3, and one
%	target variable  T. The  target data is generated by computing
%	SIN(2*PI*X1) and adding Gaussian  noise, x2 is a copy of x1 with a
%	higher level of added noise, and x3 is sampled randomly from a
%	Gaussian distribution. A Gaussian Process, is trained by optimising
%	the hyperparameters  using the scaled conjugate gradient algorithm.
%	The final values of the hyperparameters show that the model
%	successfully identifies the importance of each input.
