* Swyft makes it convenient to perform Bayesian or Frequentist inference of hundreds, thousands or millions of parameter posteriors by constructing optimal data summaries.
* To this end, Swyft estimates likelihood-to-evidence ratios for arbitrary marginal posteriors; they typically require fewer simulations than the corresponding joint.
* Swyft performs targeted inference by prior truncation, combining simulation efficiency with empirical testability.
* Swyft is based on stochastic simulators, which map parameters stochastically to observational data. Swyft makes it convenient to define such simulators as graphical models.
* In scientific settings, a cost-benefit analysis often favors approximating the posterior marginality; *swyft* provides this functionality.
The package additionally implements our prior truncation technique, routines to empirically test results by estimating the expected coverage,
and a simulator manager with `zarr <https://zarr.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ storage to simplify use with complex simulators.
