Handbook of Approximate Bayesian Computation by Scott A Sisson

The Handbook of ABC provides illuminating insight into the world of Bayesian modelling for intractable models for both experts and newcomers alike. It is an essential reference book for anyone interested in learning about and implementing ABC techniques to analyse complex models in the modern world.

"The Handbook of Approximate Bayesian Computation presents basic approaches as well as extension and mathematical details about ABC approachesAdvantages (simplicity, wide applicability) as well as challenges (computational burden, various assumptions/choice of tuning parameters) of ABC are discussed in theory and application ... the Handbook of Approximate Bayesian Computation is an excellent book and an indispensable choice for all (beginners and advanced users) who are interested in obtaining a deeper understanding of ABC approaches in application as well as statistical theory."
