- Bayesian Quadrature is a statistical approach to the numerical problem of computing integrals and falls under the field of probabilistic numerics. It can provide a full handling of the uncertainty over the solution of the integral expressed as a Gaussian Process posterior variance. It is also known to provide very fast convergence rates which can be up to exponential in the number of quadrature points n.

- ABSTRACT: Bayesian quadrature treats the problem of numerical integration as one of statistical inference. A prior Gaussian process distribution is assumed for the integrand, observations arise from evaluating the integrand at selected points, and a posterior distribution is derived for the integrand and the integral. Methods are developed for quadrature in p. A particular application is integrating the posterior density arising from some other Bayesian analysis.
