This $375,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to advance Bayesian inference methods for computational models of human cognition and behavior. The key products or services to be delivered under this 3-year award include:

  1. Developing a generalized framework for amortized Bayesian inference that can support a wider range of complex computational models, experimental designs, and real-time adaptation to changes in models or data.

  2. Implementing novel semi-supervised methods to improve the robustness and reliability of the amortized inference framework, mitigating model misspecification and enhancing accuracy on unseen real-world data.

  3. Creating a comprehensive open-source benchmarking system with standardized metrics, models, and tests to evaluate and continuously improve computational tools for Bayesian inference.

The project aims to upscale the accessibility and applicability of Bayesian methods across the social and behavioral sciences by overcoming the constraints of traditional statistical approaches. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
