From hackathon to release: sbi v0.25 is here! ๐
What happens when dozens of SBI researchers and practitioners collaborate for a week? New inference methods, new documentation, new embedding networks, a bridge to pyro and a bridge between flow matching and score-based methods ๐คฏ
Two more highlights: Your sbi-trained NLE can now be wrapped into a Pyro model object for flexible hierarchical inference. And based on your feedback, we added to(device) for priors and posteriorsโswitching between CPU and GPU is now even easier!

sbi 0.24.0 is out! ๐ This comes with important new features:
- ๐ฏ Score-based i.i.d sampling
- ๐ Simultaneous estimation of multiple discrete and continuous parameters or data.
- ๐: mini-sbibm for quick benchmarking
Just in time for our 1-week SBI hackathon starting tomorrow!
๐ Please help us improve the SBI toolbox! ๐
In preparation for the SBI Hackathon, weโre running a user study to learn what we can improve and how we can grow.
๐ Please share your thoughts here: https://t.co/axxd06ixVR
Your input will make a big differenceโthank you! ๐
What to expect:
- Coding sessions to enhance the sbi toolbox
- Research talks & lightning talks
- Networking & idea exchange
In-person attendance is encouraged but a remote option is available.
Free to attend, but seats are limited. Beginners welcome! ๐ค
๐ Join the 4th SBI Hackathon! ๐
The last hackathon was a fantastic milestone in forming a collaborative open-source community around SBI. Be part of it this year as we build on that momentum!

Let us know what you think of the new version!
๐ Just in time for the end of the year, weโve released a new version of sbi!
๐ฆ v0.23.3 comes with exciting features, bug fixes, and docs updates to make SBI smoother and more robust. Check it out! ๐
๐ Full changelog: https://t.co/bn4qICJMcU
โจ Highlights in v0.23.3:
- sbi is now available via @condaforge ๐ ๏ธ
- we now support MCMC sampling with multiple i.i.d. conditions ๐ฏ (this is for you, decision-making researchers)
๐ก Plus, improved docs here and there, clarified SNPE-A behavior, and a couple of bug fixes.
We are launching an SBI Discord Server! ๐
We want to use this server to further build a community around SBI, i.e., for sharing insights, questions and events around SBI in general and the sbi package in particular.
You are all invited to join! ๐ค https://t.co/Q1QmpYTPRR
As of today, 61 scientists and engineers have contributed to the sbi toolbox. We are extremely happy about this, and want to give a huge **thank you** to all contributors! Stay tuned for more info on events and updates! https://t.co/f8wTo2ZZZt
The sbi package is growing into a community project ๐ To reflect this and the algorithms, neural nets, and diagnostics that have been added since its initial release, we have written a new software paper. Reach out if you want to get involved: https://t.co/IKRLTONnbj
For all steps of the inference process, the sbi toolbox supports strong defaults if needed, but also provides full flexibility if desired. For example, you can use a pre-configured training loop, or you can write it yourself.
