This tutorial aims to provide an intuitive introduction to Gaussian process regression (GPR). GPR models have been widely used in machine learning applications due to their representation flexibility and inherent capability to quantify uncertainty over predictions. The tutorial starts with explaining the basic concepts that a Gaussian process is built on, including multivariate normal distribution, kernels, non-parametric models, and joint and conditional probability. It then provides a concise description of GPR and an implementation of a standard GPR algorithm. In addition, the tutorial reviews packages for implementing state-of-the-art Gaussian process algorithms. This tutorial is accessible to a broad audience, including those new to machine learning, ensuring a clear understanding of GPR fundamentals.

  1. KiDS-1000: Improved constraints on cosmology, intrinsic alignments and baryonic feedback from clipped cosmic shear

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Combining clipped and standard shear correlation functions from KiDS-1000 tightens S8 by 16% and w0 by 24%, yielding S8=0.724±0.027 and w0=-1.24+0.26-0.28, consistent with ΛCDM.

  2. Can Distance Duality Violation Save Late-time Solutions to the Hubble Tension?

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    For fixed sound-horizon and supernova calibrations, no late-time modification—even one violating cosmic distance duality—can resolve the Hubble tension, because the required ~8-10% CDDR violation is excluded by BAO, c...

  3. Kernel Learning for Sample Constrained Black-Box Optimization

    cs.LG 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    KOBO learns a continuous latent space of GP kernels with a VAE and optimizes kernel choice inside that space, reducing the number of function evaluations needed to reach the optimum.

  4. Functional inference on deviations from General Relativity

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    GRANITA reconstructs functional, parameter-dependent deviations from General Relativity in gravitational-wave data using Gaussian process regression with free node values.

  5. Sample-Constrained Black Box Optimization for Audio Personalization

    cs.SD 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Gaussian-process optimizer that mixes whole-filter ratings with a few oracle-supplied optimal-coordinate values improves audio personalization in simulations and a small user study, though the core assumptions remai...

  6. Accretion disc reverberation mapping of the quasar 3C 273

    astro-ph.GA 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New optical reverberation lags in 3C 273 show an accretion disc 2-7 times larger than thin-disc predictions, with extrapolated dusty-disc radii of 100-200 light-days matching the broad-line region.

  7. Integrated Data Analysis of Plasma Electron Density Profile Tomography for HL-3 with Gaussian Process Regression

    cs.LG 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A Gaussian process integrated data analysis model for HL-3 plasma density tomography combines FIR line integrals with FMCW point values and reaches 3.60e-4 average relative error in synthetic benchmark tests.

  8. Time-Varying Functional Cox Model

    stat.ME 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A landmark-based penalized spline method estimates time-varying effects of a functional covariate in a Cox model, scaling to functional predictors with 1440 dimensions.
