  <dc:title>Bayesian Analysis of Non-Stationary Gaussian Process Models</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package BayesNSGP version 0.2.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Enables off-the-shelf functionality for fully Bayesian, nonstationary Gaussian process modeling. The approach to nonstationary modeling involves a closed-form, convolution-based covariance function with spatially-varying parameters; these parameter processes can be specified either deterministically (using covariates or basis functions) or stochastically (using approximate Gaussian processes). Stationary Gaussian processes are a special case of our methodology, and we furthermore implement approximate Gaussian process inference to account for very large spatial data sets (Finley, et al (2017) &lt;doi:10.48550/arXiv.1702.00434&gt;). Bayesian inference is carried out using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods via the "nimble" package, and posterior prediction for the Gaussian process at unobserved locations is provided as a post-processing step.</dc:description>
