In our accelerated algorithm the calculations in the "second stage" of the delayed-acceptance scheme are reordered in such as way that we can obtain a significant speed-up in the MCMC sampling, when the evaluation of the likelihood function is computationally intensive.

Results from the case study and from a simulation study show that our models are able to reproduce the observed growth patterns and that Bayesian synthetic likelihoods perform similarly to exact Bayesian inference.
