We propose an alternative approach to stochastic programming based on MonteCarlo sampling and stochastic gradient optimization. The procedure is by essence probabilistic and the computed solution is a random variable. The associated objective value is doubly random, since it depends on two outcomes: the event in the stochastic program and the randomized algorithm. We propose a solution concept ...
Given a stochastic process with known finite dimensional distributions, we construct lower and upper bounds within which future values of the stochastic process run, at a fixed probability level. For a financial trading business, such set of bounds are called “price-bands” or “trading-bands” that can be used as an indicator for successfully buying or short-selling shares of stock. In this paper...
Extrapolation methods use the last few iterates of an optimization algorithm to produce a better estimate of the optimum. They were shown to achieve optimal convergence rates in a deterministic setting using simple gradient iterates. Here, we study extrapolation methods in a stochastic setting, where the iterates are produced by either a simple or an accelerated stochastic gradient algorithm. W...
The aim of this paper is to apply the method proposed by Denuit, Genest and Marceau (1999) for deriving stochastic upper and lower bounds on the present value of a sequence of cash flows, where the discounting is performed under a given stochastic return process. The convex approximation provided by Goovaerts, Dhaene and De Schepper (2000) and Goovaerts and Dhaene (1999) is then compared to the...
We consider a process given as the solution of a stochastic differential equation with irregular, path dependent and time-inhomogeneous drift coefficient and additive noise. Explicit and optimal bounds for the Lebesgue density of that process at any given time are derived. The bounds and their optimality is shown by identifying the worst case stochastic differential equation. Then we generalise...
This paper examines option pricing in a universe in which it is assumed that markets are incomplete. It derives multiperiod discrete time option bounds based on stochastic dominance considerations for a risk-averse investor holding only the underlying asset, the riskless asset and (possibly) the option for any type of underlying asset distribution, discrete or continuous. It then considers the ...
Simple lower and upper bounds on mean cycle time in stochastic acyclic fork-join queueing networks are derived using a (max,+)algebra based representation of network dynamics. The behaviour of the bounds under various assumptions concerning the service times in the networks is discussed, and related numerical examples are presented. Key-Words: (max,+)-algebra, dynamic state equation, acyclic fo...
