Crossed source-detector geometry for a novel spray diagnostic: Monte Carlo simulation and analytical results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Sprays and other industrially relevant turbid media can be quantitatively characterized by light scattering. However, current optical diagnostic techniques generate errors in the intermediate scattering regime where the average number of light ...

Why Monte Carlo Simulations are Inferences and not Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Monte Carlo Simulations arrive at their results by introducing randomness, sometimes derived from a physical randomizing device. Nonetheless, we argue, they open no new epistemic channels beyond that already employed by traditional simulations: the ...

Multilevel Monte Carlo for continuous time Markov chains, with applications in biochemical kinetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show how to extend a recently proposed multi-level Monte Carlo approach to the continuous time Markov chain setting, thereby greatly lowering the computational complexity needed to compute expected values of functions of the state of the system to a ...

SMCTC : sequential Monte Carlo in C++ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Sequential Monte Carlo methods are a very general class of Monte Carlo methods for sampling from sequences of distributions. Simple examples of these algorithms are used very widely in the tracking and signal processing literature.

Parental education and the risk of cerebral palsy for children: an evaluation of causality

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 1176-1181, October 2020., 2020
Aim To explore whether increasing parental education has a causal effect on risk of cerebral palsy (CP) in the child, or whether unobserved confounding is a more likely explanation. Method We used data from Norwegian registries on approximately 1.5 million children born between 1967 and 2011.

Geodesic Monte Carlo on Embedded Manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Markov chain Monte Carlo methods explicitly defined on the manifold of probability distributions have recently been established. These methods are constructed from diffusions across the manifold and the solution of the equations describing geodesic flows

Information-Geometric Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods Using Diffusions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent work incorporating geometric ideas in Markov chain Monte Carlo is reviewed in order to highlight these advances and their possible application in a range of domains beyond statistics. A full exposition of Markov chains and their use in Monte Carlo
