A survey of Monte Carlo methods for parameter estimation [PDF]

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2020
Statistical signal processing applications usually require the estimation of some parameters of interest given a set of observed data. These estimates are typically obtained either by solving a multi-variate optimization problem, as in the maximum ...

Modern Monte Carlo methods for efficient uncertainty quantification and propagation: A survey [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs Computational Statistics, 2020
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) includes the characterization, integration, and propagation of uncertainties that result from stochastic variations and a lack of knowledge or data in the natural world. Monte Carlo (MC) method is a sampling‐based approach

Multispin Monte Carlo Method

open access: yesDal'nevostochnyi Matematicheskii Zhurnal, 2020
The article offers a Monte Carlo cluster method for numerically calculating a statistical sample of the state space of vector models. The statistical equivalence of subsystems in the Ising model and quasi-Markov random walks can be used to increase the efficiency of the algorithm for calculating thermodynamic means.

Neutron Cross Section Processing Methods for Improved Integral Benchmarking of Unresolved Resonance Region Evaluations

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
In this work we describe the development and application of computational methods for processing neutron cross section data in the unresolved resonance region (URR). These methods are integrated with a continuous-energy Monte Carlo neutron transport code,

The road to a modernized NJOY [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The modernized version of the NJOY Nuclear Data Processing System is being built from a series of components that enable the traditional work required of the production version of NJOY while also providing a much more interactive user experience through ...

The Monte Carlo Method [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1971
AbstractWe give here a detailed technical description of a Monte Carlo scheme for the dynamical evolution of spherical stellar systems. The philosophy of the method, as well as a few illustrative results, are given elsewhere (Hénon, 1971, hereafter called I).

Unbiased Markov chain Monte Carlo methods with couplings

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Statistical Methodology), 2020
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods provide consistent approximations of integrals as the number of iterations goes to ∞. MCMC estimators are generally biased after any fixed number of iterations.

Quantum speedup of Monte Carlo methods. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Math Phys Eng Sci, 2015
Monte Carlo methods use random sampling to estimate numerical quantities which are hard to compute deterministically. One important example is the use in statistical physics of rapidly mixing Markov chains to approximately compute partition functions. In

Monte Carlo methods for TMD analyses

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Monte Carlo simulations are an indispensable tool in experimental high-energy physics. Indeed, many discoveries rely on realistic modeling of background processes.
