New framework enables differentiability in sample-based inference

Researchers have developed a novel mathematical framework called Distributional Sensitivity Analysis to enable differentiability in sample-based inference. This framework provides analytical formulae for estimating the sensitivity of random samples with respect to distributional parameters, crucial for inverse problems in fields like nuclear physics. The method can be applied to black-box or simulation-based samplers without requiring model fitting or knowledge of sampling algorithms, and it facilitates integration into deep learning and automatic differentiation frameworks.
