The structure and average discrepancies of lattice rules for numerical integration
(The University of Waikato, 2000)Lattice rules are equal-weight quadrature rules which are used in the approximation of multidimensional integrands over the s-dimensional unit cube [0,1]ˢ. One of the problems encountered in the study of such rules is the ... -
Adversarial risk analysis for first-price sealed-bid auctions
(The University of Waikato, 2021)First-price sealed-bid (FPSB) auctions have mostly been modelled in auction theory using the decision-theoretic and Bayesian game-theoretic approaches. From a practical point of view, each approach has its limitations. To ... -
Constructive approaches to quasi-Monte Carlo methods for multiple integration
(The University of Waikato, 2002)Recently, quasi-Monte Carlo methods have been successfully used for approximating multiple integrals in hundreds of dimensions in mathematical finance, and were significantly more efficient than Monte Carlo methods. To ... -
Computational Bayesian inference using low discrepancy sequences
(The University of Waikato, 2019)The Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) provides fast and accurate Bayesian inference for complex hierarchical models. For INLA, and other deterministic methods, the hyperparameter space is explored and points ...
