Ninomiya-Victoir scheme: strong convergence, antithetic version and application to multilevel estimators

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we are interested in the strong convergence properties of the Ninomiya-Victoir scheme which is known to exhibit weak convergence with order 2. We prove strong convergence with order $1/2$.

Multilevel quasi-Monte Carlo for optimization under uncertainty

open access: yesNumerische Mathematik, 2023
This paper considers the problem of optimizing the average tracking error for an elliptic partial differential equation with an uncertain lognormal diffusion coefficient. In particular, the application of the multilevel quasi-Monte Carlo (MLQMC) method to the estimation of the gradient is investigated, with a circulant embedding method used to sample ...

Efficient propagation of uncertainties in manufacturing supply chains: Time buckets, L-leap, and multilevel Monte Carlo methods

open access: yesOperations Research Perspectives, 2020
Uncertainty propagation of large-scale discrete supply chains can be prohibitive when numerous events occur during the simulated period and when discrete-event simulations (DES) are costly.

Stochastic Diffusion Process-based Multi-Level Monte Carlo for Predictive Reliability Assessment of Distribution System

open access: yesU.Porto Journal of Engineering, 2021
Reliability assessment of electrical distribution systems is an important criterion to determine system performance in terms of interruptions. Probabilistic assessment methods are usually used in reliability analysis to deal with uncertainties.

Path-integral Monte Carlo Simulations without the Sign Problem: Multilevel Blocking Approach for Effective Actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The multilevel blocking algorithm recently proposed as a possible solution to the sign problem in path-integral Monte Carlo simulations has been extended to systems with long-ranged interactions along the Trotter direction. As an application, new results

Multilevel Monte Carlo estimation of expected information gains [PDF]

open access: yesStochastic Analysis and Applications, 2018
The expected information gain is an important quality criterion of Bayesian experimental designs, which measures how much the information entropy about uncertain quantity of interest θ is reduced on average by collecting relevant data Y.

Central limit theorem for the multilevel Monte Carlo Euler method

open access: yes, 2015
This paper focuses on studying the multilevel Monte Carlo method recently introduced by Giles [Oper. Res. 56 (2008) 607-617] which is significantly more efficient than the classical Monte Carlo one.
