Various numerical methods have been developed in order to solve complex systems with uncertainties, and the stochastic collocation method using l1-minimisation on low discrepancy point sets is investigated here. Halton and Sobol' sequences are considered, and low discrepancy point sets and random points are compared. The tests discussed involve a given target function in polynomial form, high-dimensional functions and a random ODE model. Our numerical results show that the low discrepancy point sets perform as well or better than random sampling for stochastic collocation via l1-minimisation.
