چکیده

Direction numbers for generating Sobol′ sequences that satisfy the so-called Property A in up to 1111 dimensions have previously been given in Joe and Kuo [ACM Trans. Math. Software, 29 (2003), pp. 49–57]. However, these Sobol′ sequences may have poor two-dimensional projections. Here we provide a new set of direction numbers alleviating this problem. These are obtained by treating Sobol′ sequences in d dimensions as (t, d)-sequences and then optimizing the t-values of the two-dimensional projections. Our target dimension is 21201.

Low Discrepancy Sequences in High Dimensions: How Well Are Their Projections Distributed?

Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods have been successfully used to compute high-dimensional integrals arising in many applications, especially in finance. To understand this success and the possible potential limitations of QMC, this paper focuses on quantitative measures of the quality of a point set in high dimensions. We introduce the order-`, superposition and truncation discrepancies, which me...

Construction and Comparison of High-Dimensional Sobol’ Generators

Sobol’ sequence generators are used actively in financial applications. In this paper, we explore the effect of the uniformity Properties A and A’ on the generator performance in high-dimensional problems. It is shown that these properties provide an additional guarantee of uniformity for highdimensional problems even at a small number of sampled points. By imposing additional uniformity proper...

High Dimensional Scrambled Sobol Sequences An R and SPlus Software Implementation

We report on the implementation of high dimensional scrambled Sobol sequences for Monte Carlo Simulations under the statistical software packages R and SPlus. The generator provides low discrepancy sequences distributed uniformly in [0, 1) or distributed normally with mean zero and variance one. The implementation interfaces the ACM Algorithm 659 which allows to generate three different types o...

Comparing Relative Contrast in Three-dimensional Double-echo Steady State With Routine Sequences for a Better Diagnosis of Knee Cartilage Anomalies

Aims This study compared relative contrast values in three-dimensional Double Echo Steady State (DESS) sequences with two flip angles of 40 and 90 degrees and other routine sequences. The obtained data could help to prove the effects of this sequence, compared to the other routine sequences; accordingly, it could be applied for better detection of lesions resulting from cartilage abnormalities....

Estimating The Effective Dimension Of High-Dimensional Finance Problems Using Sobol’ Sensitivity Indices

Problems in many disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, and finance, can be modelled as integrals of high dimensions (hundreds or even thousands). Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, which perform sampling using a more uniform point set than that used in MC, have been successfully used to approximate multivariate integrals with an error bound of size O((logN)kN−1) or even O((logN)kN−3/2), where ...
