Weak probability distributions on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces

Real reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces

P (α) = C(α, F (x, y)) = αF (x, x) + 2αF (x, y) + F (x, y)F (y, y), which is ≥ 0. In the case F (x, x) = 0, the fact that P ≥ 0 implies that F (x, y) = 0. In the case F (x, y) 6= 0, P (α) is a quadratic polynomial and because P ≥ 0 it follows that the discriminant of P is ≤ 0: 4F (x, y) − 4 · F (x, x) · F (x, y)F (y, y) ≤ 0. That is, F (x, y) ≤ F (x, y)F (x, x)F (y, y), and this implies that F ...

A Primer on Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces

Description: Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces are elucidated without assuming prior familiarity with Hilbert spaces. Compared with extant pedagogic material, greater care is placed on motivating the definition of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces and explaining when and why these spaces are efficacious. The novel viewpoint is that reproducing kernel Hilbert space theory studies extrinsic geome...

Some Properties of Reproducing Kernel Banach and Hilbert Spaces

This paper is devoted to the study of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We focus on multipliers of reproducing kernel Banach and Hilbert spaces. In particular, we try to extend this concept and prove some related theorems. Moreover, we focus on reproducing kernels in vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. In particular, we extend reproducing kernels to relative reproducing kernels an...

Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of Gaussian priors

We review definitions and properties of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces attached to Gaussian variables and processes, with a view to applications in nonparametric Bayesian statistics using Gaussian priors. The rate of contraction of posterior distributions based on Gaussian priors can be described through a concentration function that is expressed in the reproducing Hilbert space. Absolute co...
