I wish realize a multivariate model with 8 inputs ( y=f(x1,x2,x3,x4,x5,x6,x7,x8) ) using the GPLAB toolbox for MATLAB. I have tested several modifications in the parameters, including  modify the number of inputs variables:

p.autovars=0;

p.numvars=8;

Nevertheless, at the end of training process the final model only considere some of the variables, for example y=f(x2,x5,x6). I would be grateful if you could explain me the reason of this behavior in the results of the model. If it is normal behavior or if I am not considering something.
