Multi-Task Learning with Gaussian Processes with Applications to Robot Inverse Dynamics

I will discuss multi-task learning, and a number of ways in which transfer between tasks can take place, mainly in a co-kriging (or Gaussian process) framework. I will then go into more detail on multi-task Gaussian process learning of robot inverse dynamics (joint work with Kian Ming Chai, Stefan Klanke, Sethu Vijayakumar).
