Thanks, Bob. This indeed has been an interesting and thought provoking
discussion.
I too took another look at this. I thought, without really doing any analysis,
that the directionality bias using
specified DF or
Cartesian product of p independent 1D t random variables with specified DF?

Yes, when I was developing the code for using the Sobol method in NONMEM, I
too found that using the t-distribution with Sobol/Quasi normal method resulted
in biased assessments of the objective function, when I used the unmodified
standard technique of generating t-samples. So, I experim

Hi Pavel
I have experienced a similar problem. In my case, the following code for
IMP after SAEM (using NM7.3) greatly reduced the Monte Carlo OFV noise
from variations of about +/- 60 points to variations of +/- 6 points

Hello NONMEM Users,
As SAEM does not provide a useful objective function, the manuals
recommend using IMP after SAEM. It works well in many cases when IMP
works well. When IMP works well, SAEM is not always needed. SAEM is
really needed when the other methods do not work well.
