Two classic flavours together, Gaussian Processes and dynamical_systems, where the dynamics are modelled by a Gaussian process.

Figure 1

Here we use Gaussian processes to define the dynamics, particularly to learn nonparametric transition, observation, or state densities. This is what (Turner, Deisenroth, and Rasmussen 2010; Frigola, Chen, and Rasmussen 2014; Frigola et al. 2013; Eleftheriadis et al. 2017) do.

This is distinct from calculating a Gaussian process posterior via a state filter, which is another way you can combine the concepts of dynamics and Gaussian process.

c.f. Variational filters and particle filters.

Possibly the same, recurrent Gaussian Processes? 🏗 (Mattos et al. 2016, 2017; Föll et al. 2017).
