Improving Random Projections With Extra Vectors to Approximate Inner Products

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This research concerns itself with increasing the accuracy of random projections used to quickly approximate the inner products of data vectors from a given dataset by adding additional information, namely, adding and storing more extra known vectors to ...

Integrated Variance Reduction Strategies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of 1993 Winter Simulation Conference - (WSC '93), 1993
In this paper we develop strategies for integrating certain well-known variance reduction techniques to estimate a mean response in a finite-horizon simulation experiment. Our building blocks are the techniques of conditional expectation, correlation induction, and control variates.

Stochastic Momentum Method With Double Acceleration for Regularized Empirical Risk Minimization

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Momentum acceleration technique is famously known for building gradient-based algorithms with fast convergence in large-scale optimization. Recently, Nesterov 's momentum and Katyusha momentum have significantly improved the convergence for stochastic ...

A Generative Adversarial Network Approach to Calibration of Local Stochastic Volatility Models

open access: yesRisks, 2020
We propose a fully data-driven approach to calibrate local stochastic volatility (LSV) models, circumventing in particular the ad hoc interpolation of the volatility surface.

Variance Reduction For A Discrete Velocity Gas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We extend a variance reduction technique developed by Baker and Hadjiconstantinou [1] to a discrete velocity gas. In our previous work, the collision integral was evaluated by importance sampling of collision partners [2].

Antithetic Power Transformation in Monte Carlo Simulation: Correcting Hidden Errors in the Response Variable

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Monte Carlo simulation is performed with uniformly distributed U(0,1) pseudo-random numbers. Because the numbers are generated from a mathematical formula, they will contain some serial correlation, even if very small.

Implementation of variance reduction techniques applied to the pricing of investment certificates [PDF]

open access: yesRisk Management Magazine, 2023
Certificates are structured financial instruments that aim to provide investors with investment solutions tailored to their needs. Certificates can be modeled using a bond component and a derivative component, typically an options strategy.

Variance Reduction of Sequential Monte Carlo Approach for GNSS Phase Bias Estimation

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are an important tool for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services. The fast and high-precision GNSS data processing relies on reliable integer ambiguity fixing, whose performance depends on phase bias

Semi-Stochastic Gradient Descent Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2017
In this paper we study the problem of minimizing the average of a large number of smooth convex loss functions. We propose a new method, S2GD (Semi-Stochastic Gradient Descent), which runs for one or several epochs in each of which a single full gradient

Stochastic Recursive Gradient Support Pursuit and Its Sparse Representation Applications

open access: yesSensors, 2020
In recent years, a series of matching pursuit and hard thresholding algorithms have been proposed to solve the sparse representation problem with ℓ0-norm constraint.
