The control variates method is a variance reduction technique used in Monte Carlo methods. It exploits information about the errors in estimates of known...

A bulbous bow is a streamlined flaring or protruding bulb at the bow (or front) of a ship just below the waterline. The flare or bulb modifies the way...

In statistics, the antithetic variates method is a variance reduction technique used in Monte Carlo methods. Considering that the error in the simulated...

based this new theory on the general principle of relativity, and he named the theory after the underlying principle. Background independence Conjugate...

different formulations of the anthropic principle. Philosopher Nick Bostrom counts thirty, but the underlying principles can be divided into "weak" and...

In mathematics, more specifically in the theory of Monte Carlo methods, variance reduction is a procedure used to increase the precision of the estimates...

intended to be informative and practically useful.[citation needed] The underlying principle is related to the use of biomarkers as surrogate endpoints in early...

out to select specific genes, and this is really the fundamental underlying principle that automatically gives individual and group selection as emergent...

simplify these topological arguments, it is worthwhile to examine the underlying principle by considering an example for d = 2 dimensions. The essential idea...

0 {\displaystyle t_{0}=0} corresponds to the spot volatility for that underlying, for the specific term. A collection of such volatilities forms a volatility...

cosmological theory which asserts that all things "flow" from an underlying principle or reality, usually called the Absolute or Godhead. Any teachings...

self-similarity, fractals and self-organization. The butterfly effect, an underlying principle of chaos, describes how a small change in one state of a deterministic...

civil disabilities on Catholics and nonconformist Protestants. The underlying principle was that only people taking communion in the established Church of...

engineering for noise reduction and in designing exhaust systems. The underlying principle involves the vibration of the air mass in the neck of the resonator...

donor's immune system's white blood cells reject the recipient. The underlying principle (alloimmunity) is the same, but the details and course may differ...

that have such capabilities (see examples below). In all cases, the underlying principle is that physical effects caused by the operation of a cryptosystem...

evaluation. A principle can make values explicit, so they are expressed in the form of rules and standards. Principles unpack the values underlying them more...

support. Using this principle, in certain cases, it is theoretically possible to determine the mineral content of the underlying soils and rocks (i.e...

equations of motion are derived from the scalar quantity by some underlying principle about the scalar's variation. Analytical mechanics was developed...

attention to development from a global perspective, measurement error of the underlying statistics, and on the UNDP's changes in formula which can lead to severe...
