Abstract

We present a framework for sparse Gaussian process (GP) methods which uses forward selection with criteria based on information-theoretical principles, previously suggested for active learning. In contrast to most previous work on sparse GPs, our goal is not only to learn sparse predictors (which can be evaluated in $O(d)$ rather than $O(n)$, $d<
