Cosmological parameter inference from samples of time delay lenses, initially in the context of the second Time Delay Challenge. In the simple TDC2 ensemble analysis, the inputs are expected to be samples drawn from PDFs for the time delays plus likelhood functions for the corresponding Fermat potential differences (as could, in principle, be provided by the lens modelers); the output in the TDC2 case is a sampled posterior PDF for the Hubble constant, H0.
- Round Trip Test - put in an H0, generate a mock TDC2 submission, see if we can recover H0.
