contents Recent work has developed a non-parametric Bayesian approach to the calibration of a computer model, which abstractly amounts to the inversion of a pushforward of stochastic input parameters by a smooth map. The framework has been used in several complex scientific applications, motivating our investigation on the continuity of the solution operator with respect to the distribution on the input parameters. We demonstrate that the solution operator for this approach is uniformly continuous in the total variation metric and weakly continuous for a broad class of distributions.
