Kernels play a crucial role in Gaussian process regression. Analyzing kernels from their spectral domain has attracted extensive attention in recent years. Gaussian mixture models (GMM) are used to model the spectrum of kernels. However, the number of components in a GMM is fixed. Thus, this model suffers from overfitting or underfitting. In this paper, we try to combine the spectral domain of kernels with nonparametric Bayesian models. Dirichlet processes mixture models are used to resolve this problem by changing the number of components according to the data size. Multiple experiments have been conducted on this model and it shows competitive performance.
