Just saw a presentation of Dellaporta et al. (2022).
I am not sure how any of the results are specific to that very impressive paper, but she attributes prior work to Fong, Lyddon, and Holmes (2019);Lyddon, Walker, and Holmes (2018);Matsubara et al. (2021);Pacchiardi and Dutta (2022);Schmon, Cannon, and Knoblauch (2021). Combines bootstrap, Bayes nonparametrics, MMD, simulation based inference in an M-open setting.
Clearly there is some interesting stuff going on here. Perhaps this introductory post will be a good start: Generalizing Bayesian Inference.
