  2. Monte Carlo method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method

    Monte Carlo method: Pouring out a box of coins on a table, and then computing the ratio of coins that land heads versus tails is a Monte Carlo method of determining the behavior of repeated coin tosses, but it is not a simulation. Monte Carlo simulation: Drawing a large number of pseudo-random uniform variables from the interval [0,1] at one ...

  3. Monte Carlo methods in finance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_methods_in_finance

    When calculating the delta using a Monte Carlo method, the most straightforward way is the black-box technique consisting in doing a Monte Carlo on the original market data and another one on the changed market data, and calculate the risk by doing the difference. Instead, the importance sampling method consists in doing a Monte Carlo in an ...

  5. Simulation decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_decomposition

    SimDec, or Simulation decomposition, is a hybrid uncertainty and sensitivity analysis method, for visually examining the relationships between the output and input variables of a computational model. SimDec maps multivariable scenarios onto the distribution of the model output. [ 1 ]

  6. Variance reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_reduction

    The variance of randomly generated points within a unit square can be reduced through a stratification process. In mathematics, more specifically in the theory of Monte Carlo methods, variance reduction is a procedure used to increase the precision of the estimates obtained for a given simulation or computational effort. [1]

  7. GoldSim - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoldSim

    GoldSim is dynamic, probabilistic simulation software developed by GoldSim Technology Group. This general-purpose simulator is a hybrid of several simulation approaches, combining an extension of system dynamics with some aspects of discrete event simulation, and embedding the dynamic simulation engine within a Monte Carlo simulation framework.

  8. Event chain methodology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_chain_methodology

    Event chain methodology is an extension of traditional Monte Carlo simulation of project schedules where uncertainties in task duration and costs are defined by statistical distribution. [4] [5] [6] For example, task duration can be defined by three point estimates: low, base, and high. The results of analysis is a risk adjusted project ...

  9. Monte Carlo tree search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_tree_search

    The rating of best Go-playing programs on the KGS server since 2007. Since 2006, all the best programs use Monte Carlo tree search. [14]In 2006, inspired by these predecessors, [15] Rémi Coulom described the application of the Monte Carlo method to game-tree search and coined the name Monte Carlo tree search, [16] L. Kocsis and Cs.
