Monte Carlo simulation approach to stochastic programming
Various stochastic programmingproblemscan be formulated as problems of optimization of an expected value function. Quite often the corresponding expectation function cannot be com...

The Sample Average Approximation Method for Stochastic Discrete Optimization
In this paper we study a Monte Carlo simulation based approach to stochastic discrete optimization problems. The basic idea of such methods is that a random sample is generated and...

Annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo algorithm for neural network training
We propose a general-purpose stochastic optimization algorithm, the so-called annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (ASAMC) algorithm, for neural network training. ASAMC c...

Parallelization of tau-leap coarse-grained Monte Carlo simulations on GPUs
The Coarse-Grained Monte Carlo (CGMC) method is a multi-scale stochastic mathematical and simulation framework for spatially distributed systems. CGMC simulations are important too...

Fast Monte Carlo Simulation Methods for Biological Reaction-Diffusion Systems in Solution and on Surfaces
Many important physiological processes operate at time and space scales far beyond those accessible to atom-realistic simulations, and yet discrete stochastic rather than continuum...
