Function-Approximation-Based Importance Sampling for Pricing American Options
Monte Carlo simulation techniques that use function approximations have been successfully applied to approximately price multi-dimensional American options. However, for many pric...

Revisit of stochastic mesh method for pricing American options
We revisit the stochastic mesh method for pricing American options, from a conditioning viewpoint, rather than the importance sampling viewpoint of Broadie and Glasserman (1997). ...

Adaptive Control Variates for Finite-Horizon Simulation
Adaptive Monte Carlo methods are simulation efficiency improvement techniques designed to adaptively tune simulation estimators. Most of the work on adaptive Monte Carlo methods h...
