Fast Monte Carlo integration with repulsive processes
Expensive computer simulations have become routine in the experimental sciences. Astrophysicists design complex models of the evolution of galaxies, biologists develop intricate models of cells, ecologists model the dynamics of ecosystems at a world scale. A single evaluation of such complex models takes minutes or hours on today's hardware. On the other hand, fitting these models to data can require millions of serial evaluations. Monte Carlo methods, for example, are ubiquitous in statistical inference for scientific data, but they scale poorly with the number of model evaluations. Meanwhile, the use of parallel computing architectures for Monte Carlo is often limited to running…
