Approximate Bayesian Computation with Measurement Error

Approximate Bayesian Computation with measurement error (ABC-ME) extends the standard ABC likelihood-free framework to settings where observed data are themselves noisy or imprecisely recorded. By explicitly incorporating a measurement-error kernel into the acceptance step, ABC-ME targets the correct posterior over model parameters even when the true data-generating process cannot be directly observed.
