This code is for the project for the master MVA course Bayesian Machine Learning, about variational approaches for Gaussian Process learning and inference [1].

data/1D_toy_data
    - Simple_test.csv
    - Simple_train.csv

Get the dataset here. The folders should look like this:

data/taxi-data
    - test.csv
    - train.csv

We provide notebooks to run experiments:

• Hand-coded GP regression using Numpy/Scipy
• A comparison of approximate GP regression schemes
• GP regression on the (massive) NYC Taxi dataset
