In this paper we focus on efficient implementations of the Multivariate Decomposition Method (MDM) for approximating integrals of $\infty$-variate functions. Such $\infty$-variate integrals occur for example as expectations in uncertainty quantification. Starting with the anchored decomposition $f = \sum_{\mathfrak{u}\subset\mathbb{N}} f_\mathfrak{u}$, where the sum is over all finite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$ and each $f_\mathfrak{u}$ depends only on the variables $x_j$ with $j\in\mathfrak{u}$, our MDM algorithm approximates the integral of $f$ by first truncating the sum to some `active set' and then approximating the integral of the remaining functions $f_\mathfrak{u}$ term-by-term using Smolyak or (randomized) quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) quadratures. The anchored decomposition allows us to compute $f_\mathfrak{u}$ explicitly by function evaluations of $f$. Given the specification of the active set and theoretically derived parameters of the quadrature rules, we exploit structures in both 查看全文>>
