The paper presents an exact, efficient solution for the Linear Model of Co‑regionalization (LMC) multitask Gaussian Process by decoupling latent processes under a mild noise‑model assumption. It introduces a full parametrization of the resulting projected LMC, enabling linear‑time optimization and simplifying tasks such as training updates and leave‑one‑out cross‑validation. Experiments on synthetic and real data demonstrate that projected LMC is competitive with state‑of‑the‑art multitask GP models while offering greater interpretability and computational ease.

The paper introduces improvements to FlowGP, a method for conditional sampling from Gaussian processes outside the linear-Gaussian regime. It adds kernel approximations to scale to high-resolution domains and a new technique for computing marginal likelihood by measuring the work required to steer diffusion toward conditioning statements. These advances enable hyperparameter optimisation within FlowGP and are demonstrated on tasks such as probabilistic downscaling, PDE solution inference on irregular domains, and sea level anomaly field recovery from non-Gaussian satellite data.

The paper introduces ISBO, a scalable Spatio‑Temporal Bayesian Optimization framework that models log‑intensity using a Log‑Gaussian Cox Process and performs inference via the INLA‑SPDE approach. By employing a Matern field on meshes, ISBO obtains a sparse Gaussian Markov Random Field, enabling fast and accurate posterior inference during sequential optimization. Experiments on synthetic and real‑world datasets demonstrate accurate peak discovery, intensity recovery, and significant speedups compared to an RKHS‑based baseline.
