We perform the improved constraints on the Hubble constant H0 by using the model-independent method, Gaussian Processes. Utilizing the latest 36 H(z) measurements, we obtain H0=69.21±3.72 km s−1 Mpc−1, which is consistent with the Planck 2015 and Riess et al. 2016 analysis at 1σ confidence level, and reduces the uncertainty from 6.5% (Busti et al. 2014) to 5.4%. Different from the results of Busti et al. 2014 by only using 19 H(z) measurements, our reconstruction results of H(z) and the derived values of H0 are independent of the choice of covariance functions.
