A Stochastic Approximation Method [PDF]
Let M(x) denote the expected value at level x of the response to a certain experiment. M(x) is assumed to be a monotone function of x but is unknown to the experimenter, and it is desired to find the solution x = θ of the equation M(x) = α, where a is a given constant.

Best Response Computation in Multiplayer Imperfect-Information Stochastic Games
Computing a best response is a fundamental task in game theory. One of its uses is to compute the degree of approximation error of an approximation of Nash equilibrium strategies.

Approximating Rough Stochastic PDEs [PDF]
We study approximations to a class of vector‐valued equations of Burgers type driven by a multiplicative space‐time white noise. A solution theory for this class of equations has been developed recently in Probability Theory Related Fields by Hairer and Weber. The key idea was to use the theory of controlled rough paths to give definitions of weak/mild

On parameter estimation for stochastic logistic growth laws through the maximum likelihood procedure
A three alternative stochastic logistic growth models (exponential, Verhulst, Gompertz) are used for modelling of growth processes. The aim of this paper is to develop stochastic growth curves for all three stochastic growth models.

A consensus-based distributed calibration algorithm for sensor networks [PDF]
In this paper a novel distributed algorithm for blind macro-calibration in sensor networks based on consensus is proposed. The algorithm is formulated as a set of gradient-type recursions for estimating parameters of sensor calibration functions,

Convergence rate and averaging of nonlinear two-time-scale stochastic approximation algorithms
The first aim of this paper is to establish the weak convergence rate of nonlinear two-time-scale stochastic approximation algorithms. Its second aim is to introduce the averaging principle in the context of two-time-scale stochastic approximation ...

The asymptotic error of chaos expansion approximations for stochastic differential equations
In this paper we present a numerical scheme for stochastic differential equations based upon the Wiener chaos expansion. The approximation of a square integrable stochastic differential equation is obtained by cutting off the infinite chaos expansion in ...

Stochastic Approximation and Modern Model-Based Designs for Dose-Finding Clinical Trials
In 1951 Robbins and Monro published the seminal article on stochastic approximation and made a specific reference to its application to the "estimation of a quantal using response, nonresponse data." Since the 1990s, statistical methodology for dose ...
