We study the incorporation of equivariances into vector-valued GPs and more general classes of random field models. While kernels guaranteeing equivariances have been investigated previously, their evaluation is often computationally prohibitive due to required integrations over the involved groups. In this work, we provide a kernel characterization of stochastic equivariance for centred second-order vector-valued random fields and we construct integration-free equivariant kernels based on the notion of fundamental regions of group actions. We establish data-efficient and computationally lightweight GP models for velocity fields and molecular electric dipole moments and demonstrate that proposed integration-free kernels may also be leveraged to extract equivariant components from data.
