The work of Currin et al. and others in developing fast predictive approximations'' of computer models is extended for the case in which derivatives of the output variable of in...
A Monte Carlo evaluation of 30 procedures for determining the number of clusters was conducted on artificial data sets which contained either 2, 3, 4, or 5 distinct nonoverlappi...
The fixed-node Monte Carlo method is extended to lattice fermion models. This method replaces the problem of finding the ground state of a many-fermion system by an effective ei...
