We introduce a Gaussian process model of functions which are additive. An additive function is one which decomposes into a sum of low-dimensional functions, each depending on only a subset of the input variables. Additive GPs generalize…

We present the Levy's distributional property for symmetric Levy processes with generating triplet $(0, 0,\nu)$ or $(\sigma>0, \gamma, \nu)$ where $\nu$ is a symmetric measure on $R\backslash\{0\}$. This generalizes the classical Levy's…
