We present a framework for the efficient computation of optimal Bayesian decisions under intractable likelihoods, by learning a surrogate model for the expected utility (or its distribution) as a function of the action and data spaces.

We present the Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning Simulations (CAMELS) Multifield Dataset, CMD, a collection of hundreds of thousands of 2D maps and 3D grids containing many different properties of cosmic gas, dark matter, and stars from 2, 000 distinct simulated universes at several cosmic times.

We train neural networks to perform likelihood-free inference from $(25\, h^{-1}{\rm Mpc})^2$ 2D maps containing the total mass surface density from thousands of hydrodynamic simulations of the CAMELS project.

Although our maps only cover a small area of $(25~h^{-1}{\rm Mpc})^2$, and the different fields are contaminated by astrophysical effects in very different ways, our networks can infer the values of $\Omega_{\rm m}$ and $\sigma_8$ with a few percent level precision for most of the fields.

We quantify the statistical improvement brought by these simulations, over standard ones, on different power spectra such as matter, halos, CDM, gas, stars, black-holes and magnetic fields, finding that they can reduce their variance by factors as large as $10^6$.

Secondly, we present the first cosmological application of Density Estimation Likelihood-Free Inference (\textsc{delfi}), which learns a parameterized model for joint distribution of data and parameters, yielding both the parameter posterior and the model evidence.
