AB - The standard Bayesian model formalism comparison cannot be applied to mostcosmological models as they lack well-motivated parameter priors. However, ifthe data-set being used is separable then it is possible to use some of thedata to obtain the necessary parameter distributions, the rest of the databeing retained for model comparison. While such methods are not fullyprescriptive, they provide a route to applying Bayesian model comparison incosmological situations where it could not otherwise be used.
