Monte Carlo simulations provide an indispensible model for solving radiative transport problems, but their slow convergence inhibits their use as an everyday computational tool. In this paper, we present two new ideas for accelerating the convergence of Monte Carlo algorithms based upon an efficient
Monte Carlo methods, in particular Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, have become increasingly important as a tool for practical Bayesian inference in recent years. A wide range of algorithms is available, and choosing an algorithm that will work well on a speci"c problem is challenging. It is theref
We study methods for accelerating Monte Carlo simulations that retain most of the accuracy of conventional Monte Carlo algorithms. These methods - called Condensed History (CH) methods - have been very successfully used to model the transport of ionizing radiation in turbid systems. Our primary obje
