In a general context of positive definite kernels $k$, we develop tools and algorithms for sampling in reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$ (RKHS). With reference to these RKHSs, our results allow inference from samples; more…

We study embeddings between reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces $H(K)$ of functions of $d \in \mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$ variables. The kernels $K$ are superpositions of weighted finite tensor products of a fixed univariate kernel. The basic…
