Unbiased Optimal Stopping via the MUSE
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a new unbiased estimator for estimating the utility of optimal stopping problem. The MUSE, short Multilevel Unbiased Stopping Estimator, constructs Monte Carlo (MLMC) at every stage problem in backward recursive way. In contrast to traditional sequential methods, MUSE can be implemented parallel. prove has finite variance, computational complexity, and achieves $\epsilon$-accuracy with $O(1/\epsilon^2)$ cost under mild conditions. demonstrate empirically an option pricing involving high-dimensional input use many parallel processors.

MUSE: Robust Surface Fitting using Unbiased Scale Estimates
Despite many successful applications of robust statistics, they have yet to be completely adapted to many computer vision problems. Range reconstruction, particularly in unstructured environments, requires a robust estimator that not only tolerates a large outlier percentage but also tolerates several discontinuities, extracting multiple surfaces in an image region. Observing that random outlie...
متن کاملOptimal stopping via path-wise dual empirical maximization
The optimal stopping problem arising in the pricing of American options can be tackled by the so called dual martingale approach. In this approach, a dual problem is formulated over the space of martingales. A feasible solution of the dual problem yields an upper bound for the solution of the original primal problem. In practice, the optimization is performed over a finite-dimensional subspace ...
متن کاملThe Problem of Optimal Stopping
The problem of Optimal Stopping is of fundamental importance for sequential analysis, for the detection of signals in a background of noise, and also for pricing American-type options in the modern theory of finance. We shall review in this talk two relatively recent approaches to this problem: the deterministic or “pathwise” approach of Davis & Karatzas (1994), and the “integral representation...
متن کاملOptimal Stopping Problems
In the last lecture, we have analyzed the behavior of TD(λ) for approximating the costtogo function in autonomous systems. Recall that much of the analysis was based on the idea of sampling states according to their stationary distribution. This was done either explicitly, as was assumed in approximate value iteration, or implicitly through the simulation or observation of system trajectories...
متن کاملOptimal Stopping and Applications
These notes are intended to accompany a Graduate course on Optimal stopping, and in places are a bit brief. They follow the book ‘Optimal Stopping and Freeboundary Problems’ by Peskir and Shiryaev, and more details can generally be found there.
