High-Dimensional Bayesian Model Comparison in Cosmology with GPU-accelerated Nested Sampling and Neural Emulators

Toby Lovick, David Yallup, Davide Piras +2

We demonstrate a GPU-accelerated nested sampling framework for efficient high-dimensional Bayesian inference in cosmology. Using JAX-based neural emulators and likelihoods for cosm…

Transfer learning for multifidelity simulation-based inference in cosmology

Alex A. Saoulis, Davide Piras, Niall Jeffrey +3

Simulation-based inference (SBI) enables cosmological parameter estimation when closed-form likelihoods or models are unavailable. However, SBI relies on machine learning for neura…

CLASS_SZ II: Notes and Examples of Fast and Accurate Calculations of Halo Model, Large Scale Structure and Cosmic Microwave Background Observables

Boris Bolliet, Aleksandra Kusiak, Fiona McCarthy +16

These notes are very much work-in-progress and simply intended to showcase, in various degrees of details (and rigour), some of the cosmology calculations that class_sz can do. We…

Savage-Dickey density ratio estimation with normalizing flows for Bayesian model comparison

Kiyam Lin, Alicja Polanska, Davide Piras +2

A core motivation of science is to evaluate which scientific model best explains observed data. Bayesian model comparison provides a principled statistical approach to comparing sc…

Full-waveform earthquake source inversion using simulation-based inference

A. A. Saoulis, D. Piras, A. Spurio Mancini +2

This paper presents a novel framework for full-waveform seismic source inversion using simulation-based inference (SBI). Traditional probabilistic approaches often rely on simplify…

Testing interacting dark energy with Stage IV cosmic shear surveys through differentiable neural emulators

Karim Carrion, Alessio Spurio Mancini, Davide Piras +1

We employ a novel framework for accelerated cosmological inference, based on neural emulators and gradient-based sampling methods, to forecast constraints on dark energy models fro…
