RSS eventMB2.22Rare events occur in many different applications including finance, nuclear engineering and health care. Efficiently simulating these scenarios and accurately estimating the probability of such events occurring is challenging, yet crucial for prediction, uncertainty quantification, safety and regulation. Since exact solutions are rarely available and standard Monte Carlo techniques are usually inefficient, it is necessary to develop clever, more advanced techniques to simulate rare events well.
This workshop will look at some of these techniques and various applications where rare event sampling is pertinent. |

MaThRad eventMB2.22Runs from Thursday, September 19 to Friday, September 20. Rare events sampling is crucial for many radiation transport scenarios, such as shielding calculations in fission reactors and dose verification for radiotherapy treatment. The aim of this workshop is to discuss some of the work and open questions in these areas. |
