Gray Image Denoising Based on Array Stochastic Resonance and Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm
Aiming at the poor effect of traditional denoising algorithms on image enhancement with strong noise, an image denoising algorithm based on improved whale optimization algorithm and parameter adaptive array stochastic resonance is proposed in the paper ...

Stochastic Variational Optimization
Variational Optimization forms a differentiable upper bound on an objective. We show that approaches such as Natural Evolution Strategies and Gaussian Perturbation, are special cases of Variational Optimization in which the expectations are approximated by Gaussian sampling.

An Isometric Stochastic Optimizer
The Adam optimizer is the standard choice in deep learning applications. I propose a simple explanation of Adam's success: it makes each parameter's step size independent of the norms of the other parameters. Based on this principle I derive Iso, a new optimizer which makes the norm of a parameter's update invariant to the application of any linear ...

Non-Stationary Stochastic Optimization [PDF]
We consider a non-stationary variant of a sequential stochastic optimization problem, in which the underlying cost functions may change along the horizon. We propose a measure, termed variation budget, that controls the extent of said change, and study how restrictions on this budget impact achievable performance.

Stochastic Bigger Subspace Algorithms for Nonconvex Stochastic Optimization
It is well known that the stochastic optimization problem can be regarded as one of the most hard problems since, in most of the cases, the values of $f$ and its gradient are often not easily to be solved, or the $F(\cdot, \xi)$ is normally not given

Signal Recovery by Stochastic Optimization [PDF]
We discuss an approach to signal recovery in Generalized Linear Models (GLM) in which the signal estimation problem is reduced to the problem of solving a stochastic monotone variational inequality (VI). The solution to the stochastic VI can be found in a computationally efficient way, and in the case when the VI is strongly monotone we derive finite ...

Stochastic-Constrained Stochastic Optimization with Markovian Data
This paper considers stochastic-constrained stochastic optimization where the stochastic constraint is to satisfy that the expectation of a random function is below a certain threshold. In particular, we study the setting where data samples are drawn from a Markov chain and thus are not independent and identically distributed.

Stability and sensitivity analysis of stochastic programs with second order dominance constraints [PDF]
In this paper we present stability and sensitivity analysis of a stochastic optimization problem with stochastic second order dominance constraints. We consider perturbation of the underlying probability measure in the space of regular measures equipped ...

A Cooperative Dual to the Nash Equilibrium for Two-Person Prescriptive Games
An alternative to the Nash equilibrium (NE) is presented for two-person, one-shot prescriptive games in normal form, where the outcome is determined by an arbiter. The NE is the fundamental solution concept in noncooperative game theory.
