Beyond Walkers in Stochastic Quantum Chemistry: Reducing Error using Fast Randomized Iteration

Samuel M. Greene, Robert J. Webber, Jonathan Weare +1

We introduce a family of methods for the full configuration interaction problem in quantum chemistry, based on the fast randomized iteration (FRI) framework [L.-H. Lim and J. Weare…

Maximizing simulated tropical cyclone intensity with action minimization

David A. Plotkin, Robert J. Webber, Morgan E O'Neill +2

Direct computer simulation of intense tropical cyclones (TCs) in weather models is limited by computational expense. Intense TCs are rare and have small-scale structures, making it…

Practical rare event sampling for extreme mesoscale weather

Robert J. Webber, David A. Plotkin, Morgan E O'Neill +2

Extreme mesoscale weather, including tropical cyclones, squall lines, and floods, can be enormously damaging and yet challenging to simulate; hence, there is a pressing need for mo…

Unifying Sequential Monte Carlo with Resampling Matrices

Robert J. Webber

Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) is a class of algorithms that approximate high-dimensional expectations of a Markov chain. SMC algorithms typically include a resampling step. There ar…

A Statistical Comparative Planetology Approach to Maximize the Scientific Return of Future Exoplanet Characterization Efforts

Jade H. Checlair, Dorian S. Abbot, Robert J. Webber +37

Provided that sufficient resources are deployed, we can look forward to an extraordinary future in which we will characterize potentially habitable planets. Until now, we have had…
