This paper demonstrates the application of a new higher-order weak approximation, called the Kusuoka approximation, with discrete random variables to non-commutative multi-factor models. Our experiments show that using the Heath–Jarrow–Morton model to price interest-rate derivatives can be practically feasible if the Kusuoka approximation is used along with the tree-based branching algorithm.
