"""
Throughout GPflow, by default, latent functions being modelled with Gaussian
processes are assumed to have zero mean, f ~ GP(0, k(x,x')).

In some cases we may wish to model only the deviation from a fixed function
with a Gaussian process.  For flexibility this fixed function could be both
input dependent and parameterised function, μ(x; θ),
with some unknown parameters θ, resulting in f ~ GP(μ(x;θ), k(x,x')).

The GPflow :class:`MeanFunction <gpflow.mean_functions.MeanFunction>` class
allows this to be done whilst additionally learning parameters of the
parametric function.
