Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are a variant of ordinary Monte Carlo methods that employ highly uniform quasirandom numbers in place of Monte Carlo’s pseudorandom numbers. Monte Carlo methods offer statistical error estimates; however, while quasi-Monte Carlo has a faster convergence rate than normal Monte Carlo, one cannot obtain error estimates from quasi-Monte Carlo sample values by any practical...

In this paper we investigate an efficient implementation of the Monte Carlo EM algorithm based on Quasi-Monte Carlo sampling. The Monte Carlo EM algorithm is a stochastic version of the deterministic EM (Expectation-Maximization) algorithm in which an intractable E-step is replaced by a Monte Carlo approximation. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods produce deterministic sequences of points that can signi...

the determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a macromolecule. italso reflects molecular compactness shape. in this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. we studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...
