Statistical inference of population parameters of astrophysical sources is challenging. It requires accounting for selection effects, which stem from the artificial separation between bright detected and dim undetected sources that is introduced by the analysis pipeline itself. We show that these effects can be modeled self-consistently in the context of sequential simulation-based inference. Our approach couples source detection and catalog-based inference in a principled framework that derives from the truncated marginal neural ratio estimation (TMNRE) algorithm. It relies on the realization that detection can be interpreted as prior truncation. We outline the algorithm, and show first promising results.

Sequential simulation-based inference for extreme mass ratio inspirals
Sequential simulation-based inference with truncated marginal neural ratio estimation shrinks the 11-parameter search volume for simulated non-spinning extreme-mass-ratio inspirals by factors of 1e6 to 1e7 and recover...

Field-Level Comparison and Robustness Analysis of Cosmological N-body Simulations
A CNN trained on one N-body code transfers well to other non-AMR codes but fails on AMR simulations and mismatched resolutions; Gaussian smoothing of about six grid cells makes the simulations statistically consistent.
