  1. 11. Hierarchical Variance Reduction Techniques for Monte Carlo Rendering

    Författare :Petrik Clarberg; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer graphics; Monte Carlo methods; importance sampling; hierarchical techniques; rendering;

    Sammanfattning : Ever since the first three-dimensional computer graphics appeared half a century ago, the goal has been to model and simulate how light interacts with materials and objects to form an image. The ultimate goal is photorealistic rendering, where the created images reach a level of accuracy that makes them indistinguishable from photographs of the real world. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In linkage analysis or, in a wider sense, gene mapping one searches for disease loci along a genome. This is done by observing so called marker genotypes (alleles) and phenotypes (affecteds/unaffecteds) of a pedigree set, i.e. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a condition in which the blood supply to the myocardium is partially or completely blocked due to plaque build-up in the artery wall. Myocardial SPECT imaging is a commonly used technique to assess the blood flow to the myocardium and the function of the heart. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Computational Aspects of Lévy-Driven SPDE Approximations

    Författare :Andreas Petersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multilevel Monte Carlo; numerical approximation of stochastic differential equations; multiplicative noise; Lévy processes; finite element method; variance redons; Monte Carlo; weak convergence; Lévy processes;

    Sammanfattning : In order to simulate solutions to stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) they must be approximated in space and time. In this thesis such fully discrete approximations are considered, with an emphasis on finite element methods combined with rational semigroup approximations. There are several notions of the error resulting from this. LÄS MER
