Orthogonal bases for polynomial regres- sion with derivative information in uncer- tainty quantification
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the choice of polynomial basis for approximation of uncertainty propagation through complex simulation models with capability to output derivative information, and demonstrate the benefits of the basis in the propagation of material uncertainties through a simplified model of heat transport in a nuclear reactor core.

An Adaptive Algorithm Employing Continuous Linear Functionals
TL;DR: This paper describes an automatic, adaptive algorithm for approximating the solution to a general linear problem on Hilbert spaces that employs continuous linear functionals of the input function, specifically Fourier coefficients.

Evaluating Expectations of Functionals of Brownian Motions: a Multilevel Idea
TL;DR: Results in the worst-case error setting are presented, showing how a multilevel algorithm employing a sum of sample averages, each with different truncated dimensions, and different sample sizes, yields faster convergence than a single level algorithm.
