A novel ellipse sampling technique is presented. The technique is efficient, stratified, low distortion and works for both polar and concentric maps between a square and an ellipse. The technique preserves adjacency and fractional area, does not require any numerical computation and has proven to be feasible in Monte Carlo applications
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
