Abstract: In the first half of the talk I will survey Gaussian Process (GP) models which offer a flexible probabilistic framework for functional approximation and interpolation. GP training, kernel selection and observation noise modeling will be covered. The second half will consist of two applications: (i) statistical learning and uncertainty quantification of derivative contract sensitivities using GP gradients; (ii) GP surrogates for value- and policy-approximation within the Regression Monte Carlo framework for stochastic control problems.
