Vecchia Gaussian Process Ensembles on Internal Representations of Deep Neural Networks

AISTATS 2025poster

For regression tasks, standard Gaussian processes (GPs) provide natural uncertainty quantification (UQ), while deep neural networks (DNNs) excel at representation learning. Deterministic UQ methods for neural networks have successfully combined the two and require only a single pass through the neur…

Scalable Bayesian Optimization Using Vecchia Approximations of Gaussian Processes

AISTATS 2023poster

Bayesian optimization is a technique for optimizing black-box target functions. At the core of Bayesian optimization is a surrogate model that predicts the output of the target function at previously unseen inputs to facilitate the selection of promising input values. Gaussian processes (GPs) are co…

Variational Sparse Inverse Cholesky Approximation for Latent Gaussian Processes via Double Kullback-Leibler Minimization

ICML 2023poster

To achieve scalable and accurate inference for latent Gaussian processes, we propose a variational approximation based on a family of Gaussian distributions whose covariance matrices have sparse inverse Cholesky (SIC) factors. We combine this variational approximation of the posterior with a similar…
