Neural Low-Discrepancy Sequences

Michael Etienne Van Huffel, Nathan Kirk, Makram Chahine +2

Low-discrepancy points are designed to efficiently fill the space in a uniform manner. This uniformity is highly advantageous in many problems in science and engineering, including…

On the optimization of discrepancy measures

François Clément, Nathan Kirk, Art B. Owen +1

Numerical optimizations can find point sets with lower discrepancies than prior methods based on algebra, and discrepancies are computationally attractive for this. The …

Low Stein Discrepancy via Message-Passing Monte Carlo

Nathan Kirk, T. Konstantin Rusch, Jakob Zech +1

Message-Passing Monte Carlo (MPMC) was recently introduced as a novel low-discrepancy sampling approach leveraging tools from geometric deep learning. While originally designed for…

An improved Halton sequence for implementation in quasi-Monte Carlo methods

Nathan Kirk, Christiane Lemieux

Despite possessing the low-discrepancy property, the classical d dimensional Halton sequence is known to exhibit poorly distributed projections when d becomes even moderately large…

Message-Passing Monte Carlo: Generating low-discrepancy point sets via Graph Neural Networks

T. Konstantin Rusch, Nathan Kirk, Michael M. Bronstein +2

Discrepancy is a well-known measure for the irregularity of the distribution of a point set. Point sets with small discrepancy are called low-discrepancy and are known to efficient…

Golden Ratio Nets and Sequences

Nathan Kirk, Christiane Lemieux, Jaspar Wiart

In this paper we introduce and study nets and sequences constructed in an irrational base, focusing on the case of a base given by the golden ratio . We provide a complete frame…
