'''Adaptive sampling''' is an approach to [[Sampling (statistics)|sampling]] that uses heuristics to provide [[Efficiency (statistics)|efficiency]]. The term ''adaptive sampling'' represents a general approach to the problem of sampling, rather than being a special method itself., Meaningmeaning it can be combined with suitable other approaches/methods.

In some real world problems, sampling is implicitly/explicitly needed and used to obtain practical solutions. The sampling process will need resources and efficient usage of these resources is usually crucial. This is why there are multiple sampling methods instead of the brute-force approach.
