Deploy version 1.8.5

* added extended version of MLP function with multiple hidden layers and different activation functions

* Update mapping_tests.py

Make output of gradient check verbose to diagnose error

* Update mapping_tests.py

Remove verbosity again after gradient checks passed without problem with verbosity

* the implementation of SVI-MOGP

* Try to fix the issue with model_tests

* updated mapping test to pass gradient checks

* Fix random seed for reproducible results in tests

* Add mean function functionality to dtc inference method

* Fix DSYR function (See https://github.com/scipy/scipy/issues/8155)

* Updated sde_kern to work with scipy=1.0.0

* Trying to fix tests for Matplotlib plotting issue

* Testing Again #575

* Figured it must be a matplotlib import error #575

New import matplotlib must be missing a package

* Removed ImageComparisonFailure #575

ImageComparisonFailure no longer exists which causes issues with travis testing using the most recent matplotlib

* Fix EP for non-zero mean GP priors

* improve the documentation for LVMOGP

* remove non-ascii characters

* Small correction to doc

* add type into docstring

* update changelog for 1.8.5

* bump the version: 1.8.4 -> 1.8.5

+    Gaussian Process model for multi-output regression with missing data
+
+    This is an implementation of Latent Variable Multiple Output Gaussian Processes (LVMOGP) in [Dai et al. 2017]. This model targets at the use case, in which each output dimension is observed at a different set of inputs. The model takes a different data format: the inputs and outputs observations of all the output dimensions are stacked together correspondingly into two matrices. An extra array is used to indicate the index of output dimension for each data point. The output dimensions are indexed using integers from 0 to D-1 assuming there are D output dimensions.
