Abstract :
In this paper, we consider the rare-event simulation of integrals of exponential functions of smooth Gaussian random processes. In particular, we design importance sampling estimators that are asymptotically efficient. The efficiency analysis consists of the bias control and the variance control relative to the interesting tail probabilities.
