Abstract

We train neural networks to perform likelihood-free inference from $(25\,h^-1Mpc)^2$ 2D maps containing the total mass surface density from thousands of hydrodynamic simulations of the CAMELS project. We show that the networks can extract information beyond one-point functions and power spectra from all resolved scales ($100\,h^-1kpc$) while performing a robust marginalization over baryonic physics at the field level: the model can infer the value of $Ømega_m (4\%)$ and $\sigma_8 (\pm 2.5\%)$ from simulations completely different to the ones used to train it.
