Quasi-Regression Monte-Carlo Method for Semi-Linear PDEs and BSDEs

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
In this work we design a novel and efficient quasi-regression Monte Carlo algorithm in order to approximate the solution of discrete time backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs), and we analyze the convergence of the proposed method.

Quasi-Monte Carlo in finance: extending for problems of high effective dimension

open access: yesEconomia Aplicada, 2005
In this paper we show that it is possible to extend the use of quasi-Monte Carlo for applications of high effective dimension. This is achieved through a combination of a careful construction of the Sobol sequence and an appropriately chosen ...

Efficient simulation of gamma and variance-gamma processes

open access: yes, 2004
We study algorithms for sampling discrete-time paths of a gamma process and a variance gamma process, defined as a Brownian process with random time change obeying a gamma process.

Quasi-Monte Carlo with One Categorical Variable

open access: yesJournal of Computational and Graphical Statistics
We study randomized quasi-Monte Carlo (RQMC) estimation of a multivariate integral where one of the variables takes only a finite number of values. This problem arises when the variable of integration is drawn from a mixture distribution as is common in importance sampling and also arises in some recent work on transport maps.

Parallel Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo Simulation for Asian Basket Option Pricing

open access: yesJournal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2012
High-dimensional derivatives pricing, such as Asian basket options, poses great computational challenges in practice. In this paper, parallel Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo (RQMC) simulation method is investigated to tackle this kind of intractable ...

Higher order Quasi-Monte Carlo integration for Bayesian PDE Inversion

open access: yesComputers and Mathematics with Applications, 2019
We analyze combined Quasi-Monte Carlo quadrature and Finite Element approximations in Bayesian estimation of solutions to countably-parametric operator equations with holomorphic dependence on the parameters as considered in Schillings and Schwab (2014).

Quasi-Monte Carlo Flows

open access: yesEasyChair Preprints, 2018
Normalizing flows provide a general approach to construct flexible variational posteriors. The parameters are learned by stochastic optimization of the variational bound, but inference can be slow due to high variance of the gradient estimator. We propose Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) flows which reduce the variance of the gradient estimator by one order of ...

Probabilistic calibration of discrete element simulations using the sequential quasi-Monte Carlo filter

open access: yes, 2018
The calibration of discrete element method (DEM) simulations is typically accomplished in a trial-and-error manner. It generally lacks objectivity and is filled with uncertainties. To deal with these issues, the sequential quasi-Monte Carlo (SQMC) filter

Randomized block quasi-Monte Carlo sampling for generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation

open access: yesHydrology Research
Although hydrological model forecasts aid water management decisions, they normally have predictive uncertainties. Generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE) is popular for constructing predictive uncertainty bounds (PUBs).
