Likelihood-Free Inference with Generative Neural Networks via Scoring Rule Minimization

Lorenzo Pacchiardi, Ritabrata Dutta

Bayesian Likelihood-Free Inference methods yield posterior approximations for simulator models with intractable likelihood. Recently, many works trained neural networks to approxim…

Probabilistic Forecasting with Generative Networks via Scoring Rule Minimization

Lorenzo Pacchiardi, Rilwan Adewoyin, Peter Dueben +1

Probabilistic forecasting relies on past observations to provide a probability distribution for a future outcome, which is often evaluated against the realization using a scoring r…

Generalized Bayesian Likelihood-Free Inference

Lorenzo Pacchiardi, Sherman Khoo, Ritabrata Dutta

We propose a posterior for Bayesian Likelihood-Free Inference (LFI) based on generalized Bayesian inference. To define the posterior, we use Scoring Rules (SRs), which evaluate pro…

Score Matched Neural Exponential Families for Likelihood-Free Inference

Lorenzo Pacchiardi, Ritabrata Dutta

Bayesian Likelihood-Free Inference (LFI) approaches allow to obtain posterior distributions for stochastic models with intractable likelihood, by relying on model simulations. In A…

Using mobility data in the design of optimal lockdown strategies for the COVID-19 pandemic

Ritabrata Dutta, Susana Gomes, Dante Kalise +1

A mathematical model for the COVID-19 pandemic spread, which integrates age-structured Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered-Deceased dynamics with real mobile phone data accounti…

Distance-learning For Approximate Bayesian Computation To Model a Volcanic Eruption

Lorenzo Pacchiardi, Pierre Kunzli, Marcel Schoengens +2

Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) provides us with a way to infer parameters of models, for which the likelihood function is not available, from an observation. Using ABC, whi…

ABCpy: A High-Performance Computing Perspective to Approximate Bayesian Computation

Ritabrata Dutta, Marcel Schoengens, Lorenzo Pacchiardi +5

ABCpy is a highly modular scientific library for Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) written in Python. The main contribution of this paper is to document a software engineering…
