Abstract

In this talk, we present a new approach to uniform sampling and

approximate counting. The presented method is called multisampling and is
a generalization of the importance sampling technique. It has the
same advantage as importance sampling, it is unbiased, but in
contrary to it's prototype it is also an almost uniform sampler. The
approach seams to be as universal as Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach.
However it is still unclear if it gives polynomial approximation schemes.
