Gaussian processes allow the treatment of non-linear non-parametric regression problems in a Bayesian framework. However the computational cost of training such a model with N examples scales as O(N3). Iterative methods for the solution of linear systems can bring this cost down to O(N2), which is still prohibitive for large data sets. We consider the use of 2-exact matrix-vector product algorithms to reduce the computational complexity to O(N). Using the theory of inexact Krylov subspace methods we show how to choose 2 to guarantee the convergence of the iterative methods. We test our ideas using the improved fast Gauss transform. We demonstrate the speedup achieved on large data sets. For prediction of the mean the computational complexity is reduced from O(N) to O(1). Our experiments indicated that for low dimensional data (d ≤ 8) the proposed method gives substantial speedups.
