Bayesian synthetic likelihood (BSL, Price et al. (2018) ) is an alternative to standard, non-parametric approximate Bayesian computation (ABC). BSL assumes a multivariate normal distribution for the summary statistic likelihood and it is suitable when the distribution of the model summary statistics is sufficiently regular. This package provides a Metropolis Hastings Markov chain Monte Carlo implementation of four methods (BSL, uBSL, semiBSL and BSLmisspec) and two shrinkage estimators (graphical lasso and Warton's estimator). uBSL (Price et al. (2018) ) uses an unbiased estimator to the normal density. A semi-parametric version of BSL (semiBSL, An et al. (2018) ) is more robust to non-normal summary statistics. BSLmisspec (Frazier et al. 2...
