On the use of transport and optimal control methods for Monte Carlo simulation

<p>This thesis explores ideas from transport theory and optimal control to develop novel Monte Carlo methods to perform efficient statistical computation. </p> <p>The first project considers the problem of constructing a transport map between two given probability measures. In the...
