Abstract
Nested simulation (also referred to as two-level simulation) finds a variety of applications such as financial risk measurement, and a central issue of nested simulation is how to allocate a finite amount of simulation budget to achieve the highest accuracy. In “Bootstrap-based Budget Allocation for Nested Simulation”, Zhang, Liu, and Wang propose a bootstrap-based rule for simulation budget allocation for nested simulation. By utilizing the asymptotically optimal inner- and outer-level sample sizes that are typically unknown, the proposed method employs bootstrap sampling on a small amount of initial samples to estimate the unknown optimal sample sizes, thus providing a reasonably good allocation rule for the main simulation. An allocation rule to ensure the asymptotic validity of confidence intervals is also given.
