 Abstract: We study a probabilistic numerical method for the solution of both\u000A boundary and initial value problems that returns a joint Gaussian\u000A process posterior over the solution. Such methods have concrete value\u000A in the statistics on Riemannian manifolds, where non‐analytic ordinary\u000A differential equations are involved in virtually all computations. The\u000A probabilistic formulation permits marginalising the uncertainty of the\u000A numerical solution such that statistics are less sensitive to\u000A inaccuracies. This leads to new Riemannian algorithms for mean value\u000A computations and principal geodesic analysis. Marginalisation also\u000A means results can be less precise than point estimates, enabling a\u000A noticeable speed‐up over the state of the art. Our approach is an\u000A argument for a wider point that uncertainty caused by numerical\u000A calculations should be tracked throughout the pipeline of machine\u000A learning algorithms.
