ABC (approximate Bayesian computation) is a general approach for dealing with models with an intractable likelihood. In this work, we derive ABC algorithms based on QMC (quasi-Monte Carlo) sequences. We show that the resulting ABC estimates have a lower variance than their Monte Carlo counter-parts. We also develop QMC variants of sequential ABC algorithms, which progressively adapt the proposal distribution and the acceptance threshold. We illustrate our QMC approach through several examples taken from the ABC literature. 相似文献

拟蒙特卡罗法在亚洲期权定价中的应用 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
亚洲期权是场外交易中几种最受欢迎的新型期权之一,但它的价格却没有解析表达式,到目前为止,亚洲期权的定价仍是个公开问题.本文采用拟蒙特卡罗法中的Halton序列来估计它的价格,数值结果表明当观察点的个数N13时,它比蒙特卡罗法要好.本文还利用MATLAB程序生成了随机Halton序列,并将它与控制变量法结合起来估计亚洲期权的价格,估计值标准差的比较表明它在大多情况下比相应的蒙特卡罗法的估计效果要好. 相似文献

We find a concrete sequence of N points, for which the squared worst-case quasi-Monte Carlo error in the Hilbert space of continuous functions defined on [0, 1] with square integrable second derivative is smaller than for the centered regular lattice point set. 相似文献

Highly structured generalised response models, such as generalised linear mixed models and generalised linear models for time
series regression, have become an indispensable vehicle for data analysis and inference in many areas of application. However,
their use in practice is hindered by high-dimensional intractable integrals. Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) is a dynamic research
area in the general problem of high-dimensional numerical integration, although its potential for statistical applications
is yet to be fully explored. We survey recent research in QMC, particularly lattice rules, and report on its application to
highly structured generalised response models. New challenges for QMC are identified and new methodologies are developed.
QMC methods are seen to provide significant improvements compared with ordinary Monte Carlo methods.

This article provides a survey of recent research efforts on the application of quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods to elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with random diffusion coefficients. It considers and contrasts the uniform case versus the lognormal case, single-level algorithms versus multi-level algorithms, first-order QMC rules versus higher-order QMC rules, and deterministic QMC methods versus randomized QMC methods. It gives a summary of the error analysis and proof techniques in a unified view, and provides a practical guide to the software for constructing and generating QMC points tailored to the PDE problems. The analysis for the uniform case can be generalized to cover a range of affine parametric operator equations. 相似文献

In this article we consider the problem of pricing and hedging high-dimensional Asian basket options by Quasi-Monte Carlo simulations. We assume a Black–Scholes market with time-dependent volatilities, and we compute the deltas by means of the Malliavin Calculus as an extension of the procedures employed by Kohatsu-Higa and Montero (Physica A 320:548–570, 2003). Efficient path-generation algorithms, such as Linear Transformation and Principal Component Analysis, exhibit a high computational cost in a market with time-dependent volatilities. To face this challenge we then introduce a new and faster Cholesky algorithm for block matrices that makes the Linear Transformation more convenient. We also propose a new-path generation technique based on a Kronecker Product Approximation. Our procedure shows the same accuracy as the Linear Transformation used for the computation of deltas and prices in the case of correlated asset returns, while requiring a shorter computational time. All these techniques can be easily employed for stochastic volatility models based on the mixture of multi-dimensional dynamics introduced by Brigo et al. (2004a, Risk 17(5):97–101, b). 相似文献

We prove in a constructive way that multivariate integration in appropriate weighted Sobolev classes is strongly tractable and the ε-exponent of strong tractability is 1 (which is the best-possible value) under a stronger assumption than Sloan and Woźniakowski's assumption. We show that quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms based on the Sobol sequence and Halton sequence achieve the convergence order O(n−1+δ) for any δ>0 independent of the dimension with a worst-case deterministic guarantee (where n is the number of function evaluations). This implies that quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms based on the Sobol and Halton sequences converge faster and therefore are superior to Monte Carlo methods independent of the dimension for integrands in suitable weighted Sobolev classes. 相似文献

In [1], a method for the numerical integration of multivariate Walsh series, based on low-discrepancy point sets, was developed. In the present paper, we improve and generalize error estimates given in [1] and disprove a conjecture stated in [1,2]. 相似文献

We propose a modification, based on the RESTART (repetitive simulation trials after reaching thresholds) and DPR (dynamics probability redistribution) rare event simulation algorithms, of the standard diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) algorithm. The new algorithm has a lower variance per workload, regardless of the regime considered. In particular, it makes it feasible to use DMC in situations where the “naïve” generalization of the standard algorithm would be impractical due to an exponential explosion of its variance. We numerically demonstrate the effectiveness of the new algorithm on a standard rare event simulation problem (probability of an unlikely transition in a Lennard‐Jones cluster), as well as a high‐frequency data assimilation problem. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Solving partial differential equations in high dimensions by deep neural
networks has brought significant attentions in recent years. In many scenarios, the
loss function is defined as an integral over a high-dimensional domain. Monte-Carlo
method, together with a deep neural network, is used to overcome the curse of
dimensionality, while classical methods fail. Often, a neural network outperforms
classical numerical methods in terms of both accuracy and efficiency. In this paper, we propose to use quasi-Monte Carlo sampling, instead of Monte-Carlo method
to approximate the loss function. To demonstrate the idea, we conduct numerical
experiments in the framework of deep Ritz method. For the same accuracy requirement, it is observed that quasi-Monte Carlo sampling reduces the size of training
data set by more than two orders of magnitude compared to that of Monte-Carlo
method. Under some assumptions, we can prove that quasi-Monte Carlo sampling
together with the deep neural network generates a convergent series with rate proportional to the approximation accuracy of quasi-Monte Carlo method for numerical
integration. Numerically the fitted convergence rate is a bit smaller, but the proposed approach always outperforms Monte Carlo method. 相似文献
