Credit risk analysis for portfolios containing CDO tranches is a challenging task for risk managers. We propose here a basis function approach for CDO tranche valuation and portfo...
— We describe a stochastic optimization method that can be used to solve inverse problems in epidemic modelling. Although in general it cannot be expected that these inverse prob...
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...

Large-scale logistic regression arises in many applications such as document classification and natural language processing. In this paper, we apply a trust region Newton method t...
We present a unified optimal semi-online algorithm for preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines with the objective to minimize the makespan. This algorithm works for a...
