OR Seminar: Derivative-Free Nonconvex Stochastic Optimization with Application to an Energy Storage Problem

Bahen Centre 40 St George St, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Speaker: Saeed Ghadimi, Princeton University Abstract In this talk, we propose and analyze derivative-free stochastic approximation algorithms for nonconvex optimization. We first propose generalization of the conditional gradient algorithm achieving a similar rate to the standard stochastic gradient algorithm (SGD) using only noisy function evaluations (zeroth-order information). For the high-dimensional setting, we explore the advantage […]
