Quantum rejection sampling

open access: yes, 2011
Rejection sampling is a well-known method to sample from a target distribution, given the ability to sample from a given distribution. The method has been first formalized by von Neumann (1951) and has many applications in classical computing.

Sampling Strategies to Improve Passive Optical Remote Sensing of River Bathymetry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Passive optical remote sensing of river bathymetry involves establishing a relation between depth and reflectance that can be applied throughout an image to produce a depth map. Building upon the Optimal Band Ratio Analysis (OBRA) framework, we introduce

Sampling Free Energy Surfaces as Slices by Combining Umbrella Sampling and Metadynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Metadynamics (MTD) is a very powerful technique to sample high-dimensional free energy landscapes, and due to its self-guiding property, the method has been successful in studying complex reactions and conformational changes.
