An interior-point stochastic approximation method and an L1-regularized delta rule
The stochastic approximation method is behind the solution to many important, actively-studied problems in machine learning. Despite its farreaching application, there is almost n...

Stochastic Approach to Scheduling Multiple Divisible Tasks on a Heterogeneous Distributed Computing System
Heterogeneity has been considered in scheduling, but without taking into account the temporal variation of completion times of the sub-tasks for a divisible, independent task. In ...
