Adaptively switching between a particle marginal Metropolis-Hastings and a particle Gibbs kernel in SMC

Imke Botha, Robert Kohn, Leah South +1

Sequential Monte Carlo squared (SMC; Chopin et al., 2012) methods can be used to sample from the exact posterior distribution of intractable likelihood state space models. Thes…

Wasserstein Gaussianization and Efficient Variational Bayes for Robust Bayesian Synthetic Likelihood

Nhat-Minh Nguyen, Minh-Ngoc Tran, Christopher Drovandi +1

The Bayesian Synthetic Likelihood (BSL) method is a widely-used tool for likelihood-free Bayesian inference. This method assumes that some summary statistics are normally distribut…
