概要	Spatial Approximate Bayesian Computation (Spatial ABC) is a likelihood-free Bayesian inference framework for spatial data models whose likelihood function is intractable or too expensive to evaluate. It draws candidate parameters from a prior, simulates spatially structured datasets under those parameters, and accepts only the draws whose simulated spatial summary statistics closely match the observed data, thereby building an approximate posterior over model parameters.	Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) is a family of simulation-based inference methods that estimate posterior distributions without requiring an analytically tractable likelihood function. Introduced by Beaumont, Zhang and Balding (2002) in the context of population genetics, ABC replaced the intractable likelihood with repeated model simulation and a comparison of summary statistics between simulated and observed data.
