1. Fixed Point Iterations for Finite Sum Monotone Inclusions
Sammanfattning : This thesis studies two families of methods for finding zeros of finite sums of monotone operators, the first being variance-reduced stochastic gradient (VRSG) methods. This is a large family of algorithms that use random sampling to improve the convergence rate compared to more traditional approaches. LÄS MER
2. Urban Travel Time Estimation from Sparse GPS Data : An Efficient and Scalable Approach
Sammanfattning : The use of GPS probes in traffic management is growing rapidly as the required data collection infrastructure is increasingly in place, with significant number of mobile sensors moving around covering expansive areas of the road network. Many travelers carry with them at least one device with a built-in GPS receiver. LÄS MER
3. Valuation and Optimal Strategies in Markets Experiencing Shocks
Sammanfattning : This thesis treats a range of stochastic methods with various applications, most notably in finance. It is comprised of five articles, and a summary of the key concepts and results these are built on.The first two papers consider a jump-to-default model, which is a model where some quantity, e.g. LÄS MER
4. Efficient and Flexible First-Order Optimization Algorithms
Sammanfattning : Optimization problems occur in many areas in science and engineering. When the optimization problem at hand is of large-scale, the computational cost of the optimization algorithm is a main concern. LÄS MER
5. Applications and Extensions of Reference Attributed Grammars
Sammanfattning : Programming languages are the main tools used to describe models of the real world and algorithms which manipulate these models. Over time much effort has been devoted to the task of making programming languages more high-level by enhancing their expressiveness, bringing it closer to the way the programmer thinks and reasons.
