Bayesian inference with probabilistic programming.

...Gen’s inference library gives users building blocks for writing efficient probabilistic inference algorithms that are tailored to their models, while automating the tricky math and the low-level implementation details. Gen helps users write hybrid algorithms that combine neural networks, variational inference, sequential Monte Carlo samplers, and Markov chain Monte Carlo. Gen features an easy-to-use modeling language for writing down generative models, inference models, variational families, and proposal distributions using ordinary code. But it also lets users migrate parts of their model or inference algorithm to specialized modeling languages for which it can generate especially fast code. ...

...If your favorite option or model is missing, you can try to implement it yourself and open a pull request to share it (see the section Contribute below) or request its implementation. Thanks to its JIT compiler, Julia is indeed in the sweet spot where we can easily write models in a high-level language and still have them running efficiently.
