While Gaussian processes with stationary Matérn covariance functions (Matérn processes) are valued for their flexibility, their use with large datasets has been severely limited by the high computational cost of standard methods. The team has developed the first generally applicable approach that enables fast, linear-cost inference and prediction for Matérn processes on bounded intervals
