A study with 5M+ data points explores the link between cognitive parameters and socioeconomic outcomes: The stability of processing speed was the strongest predictor.

BayesFlow facilitated efficient inference for complex decision-making models, scaling Bayesian workflows to big data.

Check out this project on modeling stationary and time-varying parameters with BayesFlow.

The family of methods is called "neural superstatistics", how can it not be cool!? 😎

👨‍💻 Led by @schumacherlu.bsky.social
Neural superstatistics are a framework for probabilistic models with time-varying parameters:

⋅ Joint estimation of stationary and time-varying parameters
⋅ Amortized parameter inference and model comparison
⋅ Multi-horizon predictions and leave-future-out CV

BayesFlow is a library for amortized Bayesian inference with neural networks.

⋅ Multi-backend via Keras 3: Use PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX.
⋅ Modern nets: Flow matching, diffusion, consistency models, normalizing flows, transformers
⋅ Built-in diagnostics and plotting
