Hi Andrea,

 

Here is a sample code which produces the “expected” results

 

typedef InverseCumulativeRsg<SobolRsg , InverseCumulativeNormal> SobolGenerator;

typedef SobolGenerator::sample_type SobolGeneratorSampleType;

typedef SobolGeneratorSampleType::value_type SobolGeneratorValueType;

 

void main() {

    Size dimension = 3;

    SobolRsg sobol (dimension , 0) ;

    InverseCumulativeNormal invCumNorm (0 , 1) ;

    SobolGenerator myRSG (sobol, invCumNorm);

    for (Size i=0; i< 50; ++i) {

        const SobolGeneratorSampleType& sample = myRSG.nextSequence();

        const SobolGeneratorValueType& values = sample.value;

        copy(values.begin(), values.end(), ostream_iterator<Real>( cout, "\t" ) );

        cout << "\n";

    }

}

 

hope this help,

François

Hi all,

What I need a random sequence generator that I instantiate in this way:

Size dimension = 3;
SobolRsg sobol ( dimension , 0 ) ;
InverseCumulativeNormal invCumNorm ( 0 , 1 ) ;
InverseCumulativeRsg<SobolRsg , InverseCumulativeNormal> myRSG ( sobol , invCumNorm ) ;

Everything works perfectly. The only thing I don't get is the concept of dimensionality. I would expect the member

x_.value

of myRSG to be an Array of 3 elements. The member n_,  which should be the dimension of the Array, is correctly set to 3 but apparently just one normal random number is generated. Is there any way to generate as many numbers as I need through the parameter dimension?

Any help will be appreciated.

Andrea.
