Constraints on cosmological parameters are often distilled from sky surveys by fitting templates to summary statistics of the data that are motivated by a fiducial cosmological model. However, recent work has shown how to estimate the distance scale using templates that are more generic: the basis functions used are not explicitly tied to any one cosmological model. We describe a Bayesian framework for (i) determining how many basis functions to use and (ii) comparing one basis set with another. Our formulation provides intuition into how (a) one's degree of belief in different basis sets, (b) the fact that the choice of priors depends on basis set, and (c) the data set itself, together determine the derived constraints. We illustrate our framework using measurements in simulated datasets before applying it to real data.

Zel'dovich smearing approximation of the BAO feature for model-agnostic cosmological inference
A flexible, template-free BAO model built on Zel'dovich smearing recovers the BAO ruler and growth rate without cosmological bias in mock DESI-like data.

The Linear Point Standard Ruler with DESI DR1 and DR2 Data
Linear-point distance measurements on DESI DR1/DR2 galaxy samples agree with template-based BAO measurements once a cosmology-dependent smearing correction is applied.

Scale-dependent bias and mode coupling in redshift-space clustering near the BAO scale
A biased-tracer clustering model that adds scale-dependent density/velocity bias and mode coupling accurately describes BAO-scale redshift-space multipoles in simulations, and scale-dependent bias matters more than mo...
