We study a random sampling technique to approximate integrals $\int_{[0,1]^s}f(\mathbf{x})\,\mathrm{d}\mathbf{x}$ by averaging the function at some sampling points. We focus on cases where the integrand is smooth, which is a problem which…
Quasi-Monte Carlo rules are equal weight quadrature rules defined over the domain $[0,1]^s$. Here we introduce quasi-Monte Carlo type rules for numerical integration of functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^s$. These rules are obtained by way of…
In this paper, we consider Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) worst case error of weighted smooth function classes in $C^\infty[0,1]^s$ by a digital net over $\mathbb F_2$. We show that the ratio of the worst case error to the QMC integration error of…
In this paper we give a new Koksma-Hlawka type inequality for Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) integration. QMC integration of a function $f\colon[0,1)^s\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ by a finite point set $\mathcal{P}\subset [0,1)^s$ is the approximation…
We study the sample median of independently generated quasi-Monte Carlo estimators based on randomized digital nets and prove it approximates the target integral value at almost the optimal convergence rate for various function spaces. In…
We give a lower bound on Walsh figure of merit (WAFOM), which is a parameter to estimate the integration error for quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) integration by a point set called a digital net. This lower bound is optimal because the existence of…
In this paper, we study quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) rules for numerical integration. J. Dick proved a Koksma-Hlawka type inequality for $\alpha$-smooth integrands and gave an explicit construction of QMC rules achieving the optimal rate of…
We consider the problem of computing an approximation to the integral $I=\int_{[0,1]^d}f(x) dx$. Monte Carlo (MC) sampling typically attains a root mean squared error (RMSE) of $O(n^{-1/2})$ from $n$ independent random function evaluations.…
Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods are equal weight quadrature rules to approximate integrals over the unit cube with respect to the uniform measure. In this paper we discuss QMC integration with respect to general product measures defined on…
We study quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) integration over the multi-dimensional unit cube in several weighted function spaces with different smoothness classes. We consider approximating the integral of a function by the median of several integral…
Let $\mathcal{P} \subset [0,1)^S$ be a finite point set of cardinality $N$ in an $S$-dimensional cube, and let $f:[0,1)^S \to \mathbb{R}$ be an integrable function. A QMC integration of $f$ by $\mathcal{P}$ is the average of values of $f$…
In a recent paper by the authors, it is shown that there exists a quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) rule which achieves the best possible rate of convergence for numerical integration in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space consisting of smooth…
This paper studies randomized quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) sampling for discontinuous integrands having singularities along the boundary of the unit cube $[0,1]^d$. Both discontinuities and singularities are extremely common in the pricing and…
This paper proposes a new randomized design of digital nets in which the generating matrices are chosen to be random Hankel matrices. Compared with previous randomized designs of digital nets, this approach simplifies the construction…
Antithetic sampling, which goes back to the classical work by Hammersley and Morton (1956), is one of the well-known variance reduction techniques for Monte Carlo integration. In this paper we investigate its application to digital nets…
The classical approaches to numerically integrating a function $f$ are Monte Carlo (MC) and quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. MC methods use random samples to evaluate $f$ and have error $O(\sigma(f)/\sqrt{n})$, where $\sigma(f)$ is the…
We consider the problem of estimating an expectation $ \mathbb{E}\left[ h(W)\right]$ by quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, where $ h $ is an unbounded smooth function on $ \mathbb{R}^d $ and $ W$ is a standard normal distributed random…
Monte Carlo (MC) integration has been employed as the standard approximation method for the Sliced Wasserstein (SW) distance, whose analytical expression involves an intractable expectation. However, MC integration is not optimal in terms…
Recent advances in quasi-Monte Carlo integration have shown that for linearly scrambled digital net estimators, the convergence rate can be dramatically improved by taking the median rather than the mean of multiple independent replicates.…
In this article we review some of recent results on higher order quasi-Monte Carlo (HoQMC) methods. After a seminal work by Dick (2007, 2008) who originally introduced the concept of HoQMC, there have been significant theoretical progresses…
