תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2505.21468v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present Causal Posterior Estimation (CPE), a novel method for Bayesian inference in simulator models, where evaluating the likelihood function is intractable or computationally expensive, but generating outputs given parameter values is straightforward. CPE approximates the posterior distribution using flow matching while directly incorporating the conditional dependence structure induced by the model's graphical representation into the neural network architecture. Across extensive experiments, we demonstrate that hard-coding these conditional dependencies into the network, rather than requiring them to be learned from data, enables CPE to achieve highly accurate posterior inference that matches or outperforms state-of-the-art baseline
