We generalize the multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) method of Giles to the simulation of systems of particles that interact via a mean field. When the number of particles is large, these systems are described by a McKean-Vlasov process - a…

In many Direct and Inverse Scattering problems one has to use a parameter-fitting procedure, because analytical inversion procedures are often not available. In this paper a variety of such methods is presented with a discussion of…
