arXiv:2504. 01894v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present a bifidelity method for uncertainty quantification of parameter estimates in complex systems, leveraging generative models trained to sample the target conditional distribution.
The paper introduces a two-step Metropolis–Hastings algorithm designed to efficiently sample from Bayesian empirical likelihood (BayesEL) posterior distributions, addressing challenges posed by the complex, often non‑convex support of empirical likelihood. The method leverages current parameter values and estimating equations to propose new values for remaining parameters, making it suitable for problems with discontinuous estimating equations such as simultaneous quantile regression. Additionally, the approach extends naturally to BayesEL model selection via reversible‑jump MCMC, and the authors demonstrate its utility through several real‑life applications.
arXiv:2407. 20432v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Bayesian inference methods such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) typically require repeated computations of the likelihood function, but in some scenarios this is infeasible and alternative methods are needed.
arXiv:2603. 07108v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate and reliable forecasting of epidemic incidences is critical for public health preparedness, yet it remains a challenging task due to complex nonlinear temporal dependencies and heterogeneous spatial interactions.
