“…In the case of Bayesian inference, this philosophy has led researchers to conduct inference using the so-called cut posterior distribution (see, Plummer, 2015, Jacob et al, 2017. As shown in Carmona and Nicholls (2020) and Nicholls et al (2022a), the cut posterior is a "generalized" posterior distribution (see, e.g., Bissiri et al, 2016) that restricts the information flow to guard against model misspecification (Frazier and Nott, 2022). In the canonical two module system, the cut posterior takes the form…”
