In many application fields such as ecology, epidemiology and astronomy, simulation models are used to study complex phenomena that occur in nature. Often the analytical form of the likelihood function of these models is either unavailable or too costly to evaluate which complicates statistical inference. Likelihood-free inference (LFI) methods such as approximate Bayesian computation (ABC), based on replacing the evaluations of the intractable likelihood with forward simulations of the model, have become a popular approach to conduct inference for simulation models. Nevertheless, current LFI methods feature several computational and statistical challenges. Especially, standard ABC algorithms require a huge number of simulations which makes ...
