I spent a year as a research assistant for a NASA project optimizing flight paths. Fantastic scientists - but their primary interests were not software.

Our research on GP models was based on Prof Rasmussen's GPML library[0].

At that time GPML was in fortran (or MATLAB?) but our simulator and training code was all Java.

So one of the senior researchers found a random java port on Github and just plugged it in.[1]
