Today’s clip is from episode 135 of the podcast, with Teemu Säilynoja.
Alex and Teemu discuss the importance of simulation-based calibration (SBC). They explore the practical implementation of SBC in probabilistic programming languages, the challenges faced in developing SBC methods, and the significance of both prior and posterior SBC in ensuring model reliability.
The discussion emphasizes the need for careful model implementation and inference algorithms to achieve accurate calibration.
