课程介绍： Gaussian processes (GPs) have gained extensive popularity in the field of machine learning due to their capacity for versatile representation and their ability to quantify uncertainty in predictions. As a pivotal Bayesian machine learning approach, GPs offer an effective means of establishing a prior distribution over the function space. This lecture series delves into the foundational principles underpinning GPs. Additionally, we will introduce the concept of sparse GPs and, time permitting, delve into Bayesian Optimization and GP latent variable models.
