Various stochastic programmingproblemscan be formulated as problems of optimization of an expected value function. Quite often the corresponding expectation function cannot be com...
This paper introduces a new approach to database disk buffering, called the LRU–K method. The basic idea of LRU–K is to keep track of the times of the last K references to pop...

This paper demonstrates how three stochastic process algebras can be mapped on to a generally-distributed stochastic transition system. We demonstrate an aggregation technique on ...
We apply Stochastic Meta-Descent (SMD), a stochastic gradient optimization method with gain vector adaptation, to the training of Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). On several larg...

In this paper we consider stochastic programming problems where the objective function is given as an expected value of a convex piecewise linear random function. With an optimal s...
