# Validating Bayesian Inference Algorithms with Simulation-Based Calibration

Sean Talts, Michael Betancourt, Daniel Simpson et al., 2018. _arXiv_.

Describes simulation-based calibration, a check on Bayesian inference software: draw parameters from the prior, simulate data, fit the model, and test whether the ranks of the true values among the posterior draws are uniform.
