261. Accelerated Bayesian inference: neural networks and nested sampling - M. Hobson

16/09/2010, 09:50

Bayesian inference methods are widely used to analyse observations in particle physics and cosmology, but they can be extremely computationally demanding. Recent work in this area has focussed on developing new methods for greatly accelerating such analyses, in particular by using neural networks and nested sampling methods. I will give a brief outline of these approaches, which are...
