Robust tracking of abrupt motion is a challenging task
in computer vision due to the large motion uncertainty. In
this paper, we propose a stochastic approximation Monte
Carlo (...

There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
