e/Approximate Bayesian computation

Information
has gloss	eng: Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is a family of computational techniques in Bayesian statistics. These simulation techniques operate on summary data (such as population mean, or variance) to make broad inferences with less computation than might be required if all available data were analyzed in detail. They are especially useful in situations where evaluation of the likelihood is computationally prohibitive, or whenever suitable likelihoods are not available.
