Stochastic Order and Generalized Weighted Mean Invariance

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
In this paper, we present order invariance theoretical results for weighted quasi-arithmetic means of a monotonic series of numbers. The quasi-arithmetic mean, or Kolmogorov–Nagumo mean, generalizes the classical mean and appears in many disciplines ...

Monte Carlo Uncertainty Quantification Using Quasi-1D SRM Ballistic Model

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2016
Compactness, reliability, readiness, and construction simplicity of solid rocket motors make them very appealing for commercial launcher missions and embarked systems. Solid propulsion grants high thrust-to-weight ratio, high volumetric specific impulse,

Quasi-Monte Carlo methods with applications in finance [PDF]

open access: yesFinance and Stochastics, 2009
The paper contains a review of the basic principles of quasi-Monte Carlo methods (QMC). Using QMC, one replaces the independent random points by a set of deterministic points covering the unit hypercube more evenly (uniformly) than a typical set of random points.

Monte Carlo methods for the estimation of value-at-risk and related risk measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nested Monte Carlo is a computationally expensive exercise. The main contributions we present in this thesis are the formulation of efficient algorithms to perform nested Monte Carlo for the estimation of Value-at-Risk and Expected-Tail-Loss.

A parameter optimisation toolchain for Monte Carlo detector simulation [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Monte Carlo detector transport codes are one of the backbones in high-energy physics computing. They simulate the transport of a large variety of different particle types through complex detector geometries based on different physics models.

Application of RQMC for CDO Pricing with Stochastic Correlations under Nonhomogeneous Assumptions

open access: yesComplexity, 2022
In consideration of that the correlation between any two assets of the asset pool is always stochastic in the actual market and that collateralized debt obligation (CDO) pricing models under nonhomogeneous assumptions have no semianalytic solutions, we ...

Error in Monte Carlo, quasi-error in Quasi-Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Physics Communications, 2006
While the Quasi-Monte Carlo method of numerical integration achieves smaller integration error than standard Monte Carlo, its use in particle physics phenomenology has been hindered by the abscence of a reliable way to estimate that error. The standard Monte Carlo error estimator relies on the assumption that the points are generated independently of ...

Quasi-Monte Carlo EM algorithm for MLEs in generalized linear mixed models

open access: yes, 1998
Inferences for generalized linear mixed models are greatly hampered by the intractable integrated likelihood. In this paper numerical integration based on Quasi-Monte Carlo method is used to approximate the integral of the EM algorithm and then to fit ...

Hybrid Monte Carlo on Hilbert spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm provides a framework for sampling from complex, high-dimensional target distributions. In contrast with standard Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms, it generates nonlocal, nonsymmetric moves in the state ...
