We propose kernel-gradient drifting, a one-step generative modeling framework that replaces the fixed Euclidean displacement direction in drifting models with directions induced by the kernel itself. Standard drifting is attractive because…

Gaussian processes have become a popular tool for nonparametric regression because of their flexibility and uncertainty quantification. However, they often use stationary kernels, which limit the expressiveness of the model and may be…
