چکیده

This article reports on the contents of a tutorial session at MCQMC 2008. The tutorial explored various places in statistics where Monte Carlo methods can be used. There was a special emphasis on areas where Quasi-Monte Carlo ideas have been or could be applied, as well as areas that look like they need more research.

Evaluating Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) algorithms in blocks decomposition of de-trended

The length of equal minimal and maximal blocks has eected on logarithm-scale logarithm against sequential function on variance and bias of de-trended uctuation analysis, by using Quasi Monte Carlo(QMC) simulation and Cholesky decompositions, minimal block couple and maximal are founded which are minimum the summation of mean error square in Horest power.

Quasi-Monte Carlo sampling to improve the efficiency of Monte Carlo EM

In this paper we investigate an efficient implementation of the Monte Carlo EM algorithm based on Quasi-Monte Carlo sampling. The Monte Carlo EM algorithm is a stochastic version of the deterministic EM (Expectation-Maximization) algorithm in which an intractable E-step is replaced by a Monte Carlo approximation. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods produce deterministic sequences of points that can signi...

Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulation of Oxalic Acid Ozonationover Lanthanum-based Perovskitesas Catalysts

Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation was applied to investigation of kinetics and mechanism of oxalic acid degradation by direct and heterogeneous catalytic ozonation. La-containing perovskites including LaFeO3, LaNiO3, LaCoO3 and LaMnO3 was studied as catalyst for oxalic acid ozonation. The reaction kinetic mechanisms of each abovementioned catalytic systems has been achieved. The rate constants val...

Numerical integration in logistic-normal models

When estimating logistic-normal models, the integral appearing in the marginal likelihood is analytically intractable, so that numerical methods such as GaussHermite quadrature (GH) are needed. When the dimensionality increases, the number of quadrature points becomes too high. A possible solution can be found among the Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, because these techniques yield quite good ...
