This is a good draft PR. Left some comments and questions. Would be good to have a notebook to see how to use the code. A few tests (as discussed in person) will also be required. I also think the formatting is off in some places; make sure to run make format before pushing.

yes, this should be possible and I would advice doing that.

There appears to be a lot of code duplication from DeepGP. Can you not inherit from DeepGP and overwrite the appropriate methods?

Can you give some information in the form of comments how inputs is structured. What exactly are the inputs and outputs of call?

Quick implementation of "global inducing" approximate posteriors for basic DGPs (see Ober and Aitchison (2021): https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.08140). TODOs:
