23 | Geant4 provides event biasing techniques which may be used to save |
---|
24 | computing time in such applications as the simulation of radiation |
---|
25 | shielding. These are <emphasis>geometrical splitting |
---|
26 | </emphasis> and <emphasis>Russian roulette</emphasis> |
---|
27 | (also called geometrical importance sampling), and |
---|
28 | <emphasis>weight roulette</emphasis>. Scoring is carried out by <emphasis>G4MultiFunctionalDetector</emphasis> (see <xref |
---|
29 | linkend="sect.Hits.G4Multi" /> and <xref linkend="sect.Hits.G4VPrim" />) using the standard Geant4 scoring technique. |
---|
30 | Biasing specific scorers have been implemented and are described within |
---|
31 | <emphasis>G4MultiFunctionDetector</emphasis> documentation. In this chapter, it is assumed that |
---|
32 | the reader is familiar with both the usage of Geant4 and the |
---|
33 | concepts of importance sampling. More detailed documentation may be |
---|
34 | found in the documents |

38 | A detailed description of different use-cases which employ the sampling |

39 | and scoring techniques can be found in the document |

46 | The purpose of importance sampling is to save computing time by |
---|
47 | sampling less often the particle histories entering "less |
---|
48 | important" geometry regions, and more often in more "important" |
---|
49 | regions. Given the same amount of computing time, an |
---|
50 | importance-sampled and an analogue-sampled simulation must show |
---|
51 | equal mean values, while the importance-sampled simulation will |
---|
52 | have a decreased variance. |

56 | The implementation of scoring is independent of the implementation |

290 | In a single mass geometry the sampler is created as follows: |

787 | Weight roulette (also called weight cutoff) is usually applied |

788 | if importance sampling and implicit capture are used together. |
---|
789 | Implicit capture is not described here but it is useful to note |
---|
790 | that this procedure reduces a particle weight in every collision |
---|
791 | instead of killing the particle with some probability. |

795 | Together with importance sampling the weight of a particle may |

796 | become so low that it does not change any result significantly. |
---|
797 | Hence tracking a very low weight particle is a waste of computing |

798 | time. Weight roulette is applied in order to solve this |
