Adaptive Monte Carlo methods are specialized Monte Carlo simulation techniques where the methods are adaptively tuned as the simulation progresses. The primary focus of such techn...
The calculation of value-at-risk (VAR) for large portfolios of complex instruments is among the most demanding and widespread computational challenges facing the financial industr...
