Not a short-term priority, but could be nice to have some (limited) functionality for GPs in future iterations of the package.

Yes, although that would entail writing a bunch of kernel functions, which would better be done in stan-dev/math.

There appears to be some canonical code in the stan docs.

It would be great to formalize this in rstanarm.

Hello, are you still planning to include GPs in the package? I currently have some time on my hands and would love to add some functionality, including some kernels to stan/math, in case you're interested.

Cheers, Simon

It is a bit difficult to do GPs in a way that would work well for rstanarm users in general. I think we're more likely the approximate GPs like in brms. You can do an approximate GP currently with rstanarm::stan_gamm4 and s(..., bs = "gp").

But adding more GP kernels to stan/math would always be welcome, particularly if there is some family of priors for the hyperparameters that works well for that kernel.
