Wasserstein bounds for non-linear Gaussian filters

Toni Karvonen, Simo Särkkä

Most Kalman filters for non-linear systems, such as the unscented Kalman filter, are based on Gaussian approximations. We use Poincaré inequalities to bound the Wasserstein distanc…

Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Gaussian Process Regression is Ill-Posed

Toni Karvonen, Chris J. Oates

Gaussian process regression underpins countless academic and industrial applications of machine learning and statistics, with maximum likelihood estimation routinely used to select…

Asymptotic Bounds for Smoothness Parameter Estimates in Gaussian Process Interpolation

Toni Karvonen

It is common to model a deterministic response function, such as the output of a computer experiment, as a Gaussian process with a Matérn covariance kernel. The smoothness paramete…

Error analysis for a statistical finite element method

Toni Karvonen, Fehmi Cirak, Mark Girolami

The recently proposed statistical finite element (statFEM) approach synthesises measurement data with finite element models and allows for making predictions about the unknown true…

Scale estimation and rate-unbiasedness for Gaussian processes under smoothness misspecification

Toni Karvonen, François Bachoc

Gaussian process regression is used throughout statistics and machine learning for prediction and uncertainty quantification. A Gaussian process is specified by its mean and covari…

Maximum likelihood estimation and uncertainty quantification for Gaussian process approximation of deterministic functions

Toni Karvonen, George Wynne, Filip Tronarp +2

Despite the ubiquity of the Gaussian process regression model, few theoretical results are available that account for the fact that parameters of the covariance kernel typically ne…

On the positivity and magnitudes of Bayesian quadrature weights

Toni Karvonen, Motonobu Kanagawa, Simo Särkkä

This article reviews and studies the properties of Bayesian quadrature weights, which strongly affect stability and robustness of the quadrature rule. Specifically, we investigate…
