Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

9 Enhanced MC Latin Hypercube Sampling Algorithm Quantiles in each parameter Samples permuted to bins Reducing correlations? Random sample placement within bins Uses Reduces variance from additive components Higher-order convergence for separable functions Incremental, Hierarchic Incremental options Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

11 Enhanced MC Sensitivity Derivative Enhancement Linear Surrogate Justification: Adjoints are cheap One linearization at input mean Adds one forward, one sensitivity solve q s (ξ) q( ξ) + q ξ ( ξ)(ξ ξ) Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

12 Enhanced MC Local Sensitivity Derivative Enhancement Algorithm Take any input sample set Evaluate forward and adjoint at each Adds one sensitivity solve per sample Linearize around each nearby sample Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

13 Enhanced MC Local Sensitivity Derivative Surrogate Nearest-Neighbor Partition Voronoi cell shapes, complex input PDFs require MC sampling of surrogate Surrogate samples are associated with the nearest true sample O (N s N ss ) naive search cost Search operations (and surrogate evaluation) are much cheaper than true sample evaluation Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

14 Enhanced MC Bias Problem Using every sample to construct surrogate? [ Ns ] E i=1 q(ξ i) q s (ξ i ) = 0 E [ q L] = q L s q May have systemic bias for any problem Huge error for high-dimensional benchmark problems Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

15 Enhanced MC Bias Problem Using every sample to construct surrogate? [ Ns ] E i=1 q(ξ i) q s (ξ i ) = 0 E [ q L] = q L s q May have systemic bias for any problem Huge error for high-dimensional benchmark problems Solution Subdivide sample set (e.g. 2, 4, 8 subsets) Use one subset to construct surrogate, remainder to integrate bias Repeat for all subsets; average. Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24

16 Enhanced MC Bias Issues How many subsets? More subsets == larger N, reducing bias error Fewer subsets == smaller σ, reducing bias error Numerical results show dimension dependence What convergence rate to expect? Roy H. Stogner, Vikram Garg LSDEMC Jul 27, / 24
