A method is presented to tackle the sign problem in the simulations of systems having indefinite or complex-valued measures. In general, this new approach is shown to yield statistical errors smaller than the crude Monte Carlo using absolute values of the...

The small sample performance of several AR(1) estimators is investigated through the use of Monte Carlo comparison studies. The performance of these estimators is compared with respect to the criteria of bias, mean squared error, mean absolute error, and ...
An extensive Monte Carlo analysis is conducted to determine the performance of robust linear regression techniques with and without outliers. Thirteen methods of regression are compared including least squares and minimum absolute deviation. The classical...
We present Monte Carlo studies on the singly tagged D mesons, which are crucial in the absolute measurements of D meson decays, based on a full Monte Carlo simulation for the BES-III detector, with the BES-III Offline Software System. The expected detection efficiencies and mass resolutions of ...

We describe a Monte Carlo program that generates the distribution of stopped pions produced by medium-energy protons in a beam stop. This distribution can be used to predict the absolute neutrino flux from this source to 7.3%. The same Monte Carlo program also calculates neutrino fluxes from ...
Quantities that depend on the collective effects of groups of particles cannot be obtained from the standard Boltzmann transport equation. Monte Carlo estimates of these quantities are called non-Boltzmann tallies and have become increasingly important recently. Standard Monte Carlo variance reduction techniques ...
