Wat is Importance sampling?

Definition 26.6 Quantitative Methods · Hoofdstuk 26 — Monte Carlo

Importance sampling draws XX from a density gg instead of ff and averages h(X)f(X)/g(X)h(X)f(X)/g(X), the payoff times the likelihood ratio (a Radon–Nikodym derivative); it is unbiased whenever g>0g > 0 where hf≠0hf \ne 0.

Importance sampling for a digital paying if S_T > 250 (S_0 = 100, = 25\%, one year; probability 1.21 × 10-4): relative standard error of 100 000 draws against the mean shift of the normal driver. Data: the chapter’s tutorial, seeded.
