Adds a Bayesian PPI variant AI-powered Bayesian inference via
ppi_py/ai_priors.py. Exposes functionssample_ai_posteriorandcalibrate_dp_alpha_empirical_coverage_estimate. Currently the calibration function is based on a coarse, low-fidelity grid search as high-fidelity calibration can be computationally intensive for this method.Something to note is that the implementation is general and the
sample_ai_posteriorrequires users to specify alossfunction which isCallable. For parallel computation on the CPU to work, the functionlossmust be pickleable (i.e. defined at the top-level of a module). To overcome this and allow for lambda functions/nested functions/etc may require an additional dependency likecloudpickle.Adds tests via
tests/test_ai_priors.pyand an example notebook on the galaxies dataset viaexamples/galaxies_aip.ipynb.Uses
examples/aip_utils.pysolely to add code to make a plot in the example notebook. Could be potentially refactored out, with the code moved to the notebook itself or the existing plotting function to be suitably modified.
