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...

Improved Rates for the Stochastic Continuum-Armed Bandit Problem
Abstract. Considering one-dimensional continuum-armed bandit problems, we propose an improvement of an algorithm of Kleinberg and a new set of conditions which give rise to improve...

Stochastic modeling and analysis of hybrid mobility in reconfigurable distributed virtual machines
Virtualization provides a vehicle to manage the available resources and enhance their utilization in network computing. System dynamics requires virtual machines be distributed an...

Stochastic Online Scheduling Revisited
We consider the problem of minimizing the total weighted completion time on identical parallel machines when jobs have stochastic processing times and may arrive over time. We give...
