Testing, not presuming, adequacy: calibrating generative social simulators against emergent network structure
Validation of generative social simulators often stops at face validity: emergent network structure is compared descriptively, without quantified parameter uncertainty or an adequacy check. We present an adequacy-aware calibration protocol that couples amortized posterior estimation with a synthetic identifiability ass...
