Advancing Field-level and Simulation-based Inference for Cosmology

Connecting field-level inference with summary statistics

Jun 9, 2026, 9:30 AM

1h

PI/4-405 - Bob Room (Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics)

Conference Talk

Speaker

Fabian Schmidt (Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics)

Description

I will discuss how field-level inference can be connected with summary statistics in the context of a perturbative forward model, and what this implies for the information gain obtainable at the field level. I will also present recent quantitative results on the information gain.
