    Snippet: The two dominant approaches to fitting models to data are least-squares estimation (LSE), which has been largely supplanted by the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) [54] . The latter is typically embedded in a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm that constructs a probability distribution for θ using Bayes theorem [55] [56] [57] [58] .

    Document: The two dominant approaches to fitting models to data are least-squares estimation (LSE), which has been largely supplanted by the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) [54] . The latter is typically embedded in a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm that constructs a probability distribution for θ using Bayes theorem [55] [56] [57] [58] . MCMC requires the likelihood function to be known. This can be obviated, though, by assuming the distribution of model outcomes to be Poisson (as we do below), using likelihood-function-free methods [59] , or using approximate Bayesian approaches [60] .
