function g = gpgrad(net, x, t)
%GPGRAD	Evaluate error gradient for Gaussian Process.
%
%	Description
%	G = GPGRAD(NET, X, T) takes a Gaussian Process data structure NET
%	together  with a matrix X of input vectors and a matrix T of target
%	vectors, and evaluates the error gradient G. Each row of X
%	corresponds to one input vector and each row of T corresponds to one
%	target vector.
