Reading list for ABC PhD course
As the ABC PhD course at CREST is about to start (!), I am thinking of setting a few on-line papers to read. Since the most specific topic is ABC convergence, here is the reading list:
- Blum M.G.B. (2010) Approximate Bayesian Computation: a nonparametric perspective. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 105: 1178-1187

- Fearnhead, P. and Prangle, D. (2012) Constructing summary statistics for approximate Bayesian computation: semi-automatic approximate Bayesian computation. J. Royal Statistical Society (Series B)
- Marin, J.-M., Pillai, N., Robert, C.P. and Rousseau, J. (2011) Relevant statistics for Bayesian model choice. arXiv:1110.4700

[…] ABC model choice, using the same slides as in Cambridge last month. (Following another ABC talk by Richard Wilkinson a few weeks ago.) […]
