Medical Image Synthesis via Monte Carlo Simulation
A large number of test images and their "ground truth" segmentations are needed for performance characterization of the many image segmentation methods. In this work we ...

Techniques for Empirical Testing of Parallel Random Number Generators
Parallel computers are now commonly used for computational science and engineering, and many applications in these areas use random number generators. For some applications, such ...

A Quasi-Monte Carlo Method for Integration with Improved Convergence
Abstract. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are based on the idea that random Monte Carlo techniques can often be improved by replacing the underlying source of random numbers with a more ...

Monte-Carlo optimizations for resource allocation problems in stochastic network systems
Real-world distributed systems and networks are often unreliable and subject to random failures of its components. Such a stochastic behavior affects adversely the complexity of o...

Sequential Monte Carlo in reachability heuristics for probabilistic planning
The current best conformant probabilistic planners encode the problem as a bounded length CSP or SAT problem. While these approaches can find optimal solutions for given plan leng...
