The Square Root Rule for Adaptive Importance Sampling [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation, 2020
In adaptive importance sampling and other contexts, we haveK> 1 unbiased and uncorrelated estimates μ^kof a common quantity μ. The optimal unbiased linear combination weights them inversely to their variances, but those weights are unknown and hard to estimate.
