Variance reduction for generalized likelihood ratio method by conditional Monte Carlo and randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo methods

The generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) method is a recently introduced gradient estimation method for handling discontinuities in a wide range of sample performances. We put the GLR methods from previous work into a single framework, simplify regularity conditions to justify the unbiasedness of GLR,...
