Ant-based approach for determining the change of measure in importance sampling
Importance Sampling is a potentially powerful variance reduction technique to speed up simulations where the objective depends on the occurrence of rare events. However, it is cru...

Adaptive state- dependent importance sampling simulation of markovian queueing networks
In this paper, a method is presented for the efficient estimation of rare-event (buffer overflow) probabilities in queueing networks using importance sampling. Unlike previously pr...

Approximate Counting by Sampling the Backtrack-free Search Space
We present a new estimator for counting the number of solutions of a Boolean satisfiability problem as a part of an importance sampling framework. The estimator uses the recently...
