Systematic errors in Gaussian Quantum Monte Carlo and a systematic study of the symmetry projection method [PDF]
, 2008 Gaussian Quantum Monte Carlo (GQMC) is a stochastic phase space method for fermions with positive weights. In the example of the Hubbard model close to half filling it fails to reproduce all the symmetries of the ground state leading to systematic errors

About the benefits of poststratification in forest inventories
Journal of Forest Science, 2007 A large virtual population is created based on the GIS data base of a forest district and inventory data. It serves as a population where large scale inventories with systematic and simple random poststratified estimators can be simulated and the gains ...
