Importance sampling: a review
AbstractWe provide a short overview of importance sampling—a popular sampling tool used for Monte Carlo computing. We discuss its mathematical foundation and properties that determine its accuracy in Monte Carlo approximations. We review the fundamental ...
Importance sampling-based estimation over AND/OR search spaces for graphical models
It is well known that the accuracy of importance sampling can be improved by reducing the variance of its sample mean and therefore variance reduction schemes have been the subject of much research. In this paper, we introduce a family of variance ...
Importance sampling algorithms for Bayesian networks: Principles and performance
Precision achieved by stochastic sampling algorithms for Bayesian networks typically deteriorates in the face of extremely unlikely evidence. In addressing this problem, importance sampling algorithms seem to be most successful. We discuss the ...
