Stochastic Barnes-Hut Approximation for Fast Summation on the GPU
DescriptionWe present a novel stochastic version of the Barnes-Hut approximation. Regarding the level-of-detail (LOD) family of approximations as control variates, we construct an unbiased estimator of the kernel sum being approximated. Through several examples in graphics, we demonstrate that our method outperforms a GPU-optimized implementation of the deterministic Barnes-Hut approximation.
