Spherical Inducing Features for Orthogonally-Decoupled Gaussian Processes

Louis C. Tiao, Vincent Dutordoir, Victor Picheny

Despite their many desirable properties, Gaussian processes (GPs) are often compared unfavorably to deep neural networks (NNs) for lacking the ability to learn representations. Rec…

Inducing Point Allocation for Sparse Gaussian Processes in High-Throughput Bayesian Optimisation

Henry B. Moss, Sebastian W. Ober, Victor Picheny

Sparse Gaussian Processes are a key component of high-throughput Bayesian Optimisation (BO) loops; however, we show that existing methods for allocating their inducing points sever…
