OR 772
Advanced Stochastic Simulation
Section: 001

Course Description

This course is methodologically focused and a continuation of ISE 762 in Monte Carlo methods. The topics include, but are not limited to, Quasi-Monte Carlo, importance sampling and other advanced variance reduction approaches, derivative estimation, and advanced simulation optimization in continuous and finite spaces. While the application of these techniques to actual simulations is practiced as assignments, the discussion on simulation software and programming will be minimal. A current topic research presentation/paper required.
