PageRank Optimization in Polynomial Time by Stochastic Shortest Path Reformulation
Abstract. The importance of a node in a directed graph can be measured by its PageRank. The PageRank of a node is used in a number of application contexts

The O.D.E. Method for Convergence of Stochastic Approximation and Reinforcement Learning
It is shown here that stability of the stochastic approximation algorithm is implied by the asymptotic stability of the origin for an associated ODE. This in turn implies convergen...

Water networks security: A two-stage mixed-integer stochastic program for sensor placement under uncertainty
This work describes a stochastic approach for the optimal placement of sensors in municipal water networks to detect maliciously injected contaminants. The model minimizes the exp...
