EXACT SIMULATION OF A BOOLEAN MODEL
A Boolean model is a union of independent objects (compact random subsets) located at Poisson points. Two algorithms are proposed for simulating a Boolean model in a bounded domain. The first one applies only to stationary models.

Simulated annealing - moving from a tractable distribution to a distribution of interest via a sequence of intermediate distributions - has traditionally been used as an inexact method of handling isolated modes in Markov chain samplers. Here, it is shown how one can use the Markov chain transitions for such an annealing sequence to define an ...

Research on Data-Driven Optimal Scheduling of Power System
The uncertainty of output makes it difficult to effectively solve the economic security dispatching problem of the power grid when a high proportion of renewable energy generating units are integrated into the power grid.

Importance sampling for multimodal functions and application to pricing exotic options.
We consider importance sampling (IS) to increase the efficiency of Monte Carlo integration, especially for pricing exotic options where the random input is multivariate Normal.

Fourier Analysis of Stochastic Sampling Strategies for Assessing Bias and Variance in Integration [PDF]
Each pixel in a photorealistic, computer generated picture is calculated by approximately integrating all the light arriving at the pixel, from the virtual scene. A common strategy to calculate these high-dimensional integrals is to average the estimates

Advantage estimator based on importance sampling
In continuous action tasks,deep reinforcement learning usually uses Gaussian distribution as a policy function.Aiming at the problem that the Gaussian distribution policy function slows down due to the clipped action,an importance sampling advantage ...

Importance Sampling Spherical Harmonics [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper we present the first practical method for importance sampling functions represented as spherical harmonics (SH). Given a spherical probability density function (PDF) represented as a vector of SH coefficients, our method warps an input point set to match the target PDF using hierarchical sample warping.
