AB - We investigate Bernstein–von Mises theorems for adaptive nonparametric Bayesian procedures in the canonical Gaussian white noise model. Weconsider both a Hilbert space and multiscale setting with applications in L2and L∞, respectively. This provides a theoretical justification for plug-in procedures, for example the use of certain credible sets for sufficiently smoothlinear functionals. We use this general approach to construct optimal frequentist confidence sets based on the posterior distribution. We also provide simulations to numerically illustrate our approach and obtain a visual representation of the geometries involved.
