Selective Inference with Distributed Data

Journal Article Journal of Machine Learning Research · January 1, 2025 When data are distributed across multiple sites or machines rather than centralized in one location, researchers face the challenge of extracting meaningful information without directly sharing individual data points. While there are many distributed metho ... Cite

CONDITIONAL QUASI-MONTE CARLO WITH CONSTRAINED ACTIVE SUBSPACES

Journal Article SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing · October 1, 2024 Conditional Monte Carlo or pre-integration is a powerful tool for reducing variance and improving the regularity of integrands when using Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. To select the variable to pre-integrate, one must consider both the v ... Full text Cite

PREINTEGRATION VIA ACTIVE SUBSPACE

Journal Article SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis · January 1, 2023 Preintegration is an extension of conditional Monte Carlo to quasi-Monte Carlo and randomized quasi-Monte Carlo. Conditioning can reduce but not increase the variance in Monte Carlo. For quasi-Monte Carlo it can bring about improved regularity of the integ ... Full text Cite
