A Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo Simulation Method for Markov Chains
We introduce and study a randomized quasi-Monte Carlo method for estimating the state distribution at each step of a Markov chain. The number of steps in the chain can be random an...

Importance Resampling for Global Illumination
This paper develops importance resampling into a variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo integration. Importance resampling is a sample generation technique that can be used ...

Density-based Outlier Rejection in Monte Carlo Rendering
The problem of noise in Monte-Carlo rendering arising from estimator variance is well-known and well-studied. In this work, we concentrate on identifying individual light paths as...

Accelerated Simulation for Pricing Asian Options
When pricing options via Monte Carlo simulations, precision can be improved either by performing longer simulations, or by reducing the variance of the estimators. In this paper, ...

Sequential Monte Carlo Adaptation in Low-Anisotropy Participating Media
This paper presents a novel method that effectively combines both control variates and importance sampling in a sequential Monte Carlo context. The radiance estimates computed dur...
