Three Costs of Amortizing Gaussian Process Inference with Neural Processes

arXiv:2605.21798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural processes amortize Gaussian process inference, replacing the exact $O(n^3)$ posterior with a learned $O(n)$ map from context sets to predictive distributions. For a class of latent neural processes, we bound the Kullback--L…

Three Costs of Amortizing Gaussian Process Inference with Neural Processes

Neural processes amortize Gaussian process inference, replacing the exact $O(n^3)$ posterior with a learned $O(n)$ map from context sets to predictive distributions. For a class of latent neural processes, we bound the Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence between the GP and LNP pred…
