Stochastic Limit-Average Games are in EXPTIME
The value of a finite-state two-player zero-sum stochastic game with limit-average payoff can be approximated to within in time exponential in a polynomial in the size of the gam...

Annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo algorithm for neural network training
We propose a general-purpose stochastic optimization algorithm, the so-called annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (ASAMC) algorithm, for neural network training. ASAMC c...
