Prepaid parameter estimation without likelihoods
Fig 7
The accuracy of all estimation methods versus the number of time points Tobs.
The left panel shows the mean squared error, while the right panel shows the median absolute error. The three colors represent the three parameters. Blue lines refer to the parameter r, red lines to the parameter σ and yellow lines to the parameter ϕ. The solid line represents the original synthetic likelihood approach SLOrig (stopping at Tobs = 103), the dashed line the prepaid approach and the dotted line the
prepaid approach.
