Stitching Monte Carlo samples

چکیده
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are extensively used for various purposes in modern high-energy physics (HEP) experiments. Precision measurements of established Standard Model processes or searches new often require the collection vast amounts data. It is difficult to produce MC samples containing an adequate number events allow a meaningful comparison with data, as substantial computing resources required and store such samples. One solution employed when producing HEP experiments partition phase space particle interactions into multiple regions separately each region. This approach allows adapt size needs analyses that performed these regions. In this paper we present procedure combining overlap space. The based on applying suitably chosen weights simulated events. We refer "stitching". includes different examples proton-proton collisions at CERN Large Hadron Collider.

On Generating Monte Carlo Samples of Continuous Diffusion Bridges
Diffusion processes are widely used in engineering, finance, physics, and other fields. Usually continuous-time diffusion processes can be observed only at discrete time points. For many applications, it is often useful to impute continuous-time bridge samples that follow the diffusion dynamics and connect each pair of the consecutive observations. The sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) method is a u...
متن کاملReweighting Firefly Samples for Improved Finite-Sample Monte Carlo Estimates
Samples with high contribution but low probability density, often called fireflies, occur in all practical Monte Carlo estimators and are part of computing unbiased estimates. For finite-sample estimates, however, they can lead to excessive variance. Rejecting all samples classified as outliers, as suggested in previous work, leads to estimates that are too low and can cause undesirable artifac...
متن کاملMonte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods
Monte Carlo is one of the most versatile and widely used numerical methods. Its convergence rate, O(N~^), is independent of dimension, which shows Monte Carlo to be very robust but also slow. This article presents an introduction to Monte Carlo methods for integration problems, including convergence theory, sampling methods and variance reduction techniques. Accelerated convergence for Monte Ca...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Extension of Quasi-monte Carlo
This paper surveys recent research on using Monte Carlo techniques to improve quasi-Monte Carlo techniques. Randomized quasi-Monte Carlo methods provide a basis for error estimation. They have, in the special case of scrambled nets, also been observed to improve accuracy. Finally through Latin supercube sampling it is possible to use Monte Carlo methods to extend quasi-Monte Carlo methods to hi...
متن کاملMonte Carlo
In this lecture, we cover the other major method for generating atomic trajectories: the Monte Carlo (MC) approach. Unlike MD, Monte Carlo methods are stochastic in nature—the time progression of the atomic positions proceeds randomly and is not predictable given a set of initial conditions. The dynamic principles by which we evolve the atomic positions incorporate random moves or perturbations...
