Better streaming algorithms for clustering problems
We study clustering problems in the streaming model, where the goal is to cluster a set of points by making one pass (or a few passes) over the data using a small amount of storag...

The O.D.E. Method for Convergence of Stochastic Approximation and Reinforcement Learning
It is shown here that stability of the stochastic approximation algorithm is implied by the asymptotic stability of the origin for an associated ODE. This in turn implies convergen...

Markov Approximation for Combinatorial Network Optimization
—Many important network design problems can be formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem. A large number of such problems, however, cannot readily be tackled by distribu...
