On the Convergence of Stochastic Process Convergence Proofs
Convergence of a stochastic process is an intrinsic property quite relevant for its successful practical for example for the function optimization problem.

Optimization with multivariate conditional value-at-risk constraints [PDF]
For many decision making problems under uncertainty, it is crucial to develop risk-averse models and specify the decision makers' risk preferences based on multiple stochastic performance measures (or criteria). Incorporating such multivariate preference

Optimization and Improvement of Gas Spring Design in An Energy Storing Prosthetic Knee
In this research, an optimization and improvement of gas spring design is discussed. The gas spring is used as a suspension component of an energy storing prosthetic knee. The gas spring replaces the quadricep muscles of transfemoral amputee.

Adaptive Stochastic Optimization
Optimization lies at the heart of machine learning and signal processing. Contemporary approaches based on the stochastic gradient method are non-adaptive in the sense that their implementation employs prescribed parameter values that need to be tuned for each application.

Data-Pooling in Stochastic Optimization [PDF]
Managing large-scale systems often involves simultaneously solving thousands of unrelated stochastic optimization problems, each with limited data. Intuition suggests that one can decouple these unrelated problems and solve them separately without loss of generality.

Distributed delayed stochastic optimization [PDF]
We analyze the convergence of gradient-based optimization algorithms that base their updates on delayed stochastic gradient information. The main application of our results is to the development of gradient-based distributed optimization algorithms where a master node performs parameter updates while worker nodes compute stochastic gradients based on ...

An Accelerated Method For Decentralized Distributed Stochastic Optimization Over Time-Varying Graphs [PDF]
We consider a distributed stochastic optimization problem that is solved by a decentralized network of agents with only local communication between neighboring agents. The goal of the whole system is to minimize a global objective function given as a sum

Optimization of stochastic systems [PDF]
This paper gives a short survey of Monte Carlo algorithms for stochastic optimization. Both discrete and continuous parameter stochastic optimization are discussed, with emphasis on the analysis of convergence rate. Some future research directions for the area are also indicated.
