Abstract

In numerical integration, cubature methods are effective, especially when the integrands can be well-approximated by known test functions, such as polynomials. However, the construction of cubature formulas has not generally been known, and existing examples only represent the particular domains of integrands, such as hypercubes and spheres. In this study, we show that cubature formulas can be constructed for probability measures provided that we have an i.i.d. sampler from the measure and the mean values of given test functions. Moreover, the proposed method also works as a means of data compression, even if sufficient prior information of the measure is not available.
