Simultaneous-Perturbation-Stochastic-Approximation Algorithm for Parachute Parameter Estimation
This paper presents an algorithm to estimate unknown parameters of parachute models from flight-test data. The algorithm is based on the simultaneous-perturbation-stochastic-approximation method to minimize the prediction error (difference between model output and test data). The algorithm is simple to code and requires only the model output. Analytical gradients are not necessary. The algorith...
متن کاملSimultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation of nonsmooth functions
A simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) method has been developed in this paper, using the operators of perturbation with the Lipschitz density function. This model enables us to use the approximation of the objective function by twice differentiable functions and to present their gradients by volume integrals. The calculus of the stochastic gradient by means of this present...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation Algorithm for Solving Stochastic Transportation Network Analysis Problems
Stochastic optimization has become one of the important modeling approaches in the transportation network analysis. For example, for traffic assignment problems based on stochastic simulation, it is necessary to use a mathematical algorithm that iteratively seeks out the optimal and/or suboptimal solution because an analytical (closed-form) objective function is not available. Therefore, there ...
متن کاملSimultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation for automatic speech recognition
While both the acoustic model and the language model in automatic speech recognition are typically well-trained on the target domain, the free parameters of the decoder itself are often set manually. In this paper, we investigate in how far a stochastic approximation algorithm can be employed to automatically determine the best parameters, especially if additional timeconstraints are given on u...
متن کاملAdaptive initial step size selection for Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation.
A difficulty in using Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastics Approximation (SPSA) is its performance sensitivity to the step sizes chosen at the initial stage of the iteration. If the step size is too large, the solution estimate may fail to converge. The proposed adaptive stepping method automatically reduces the initial step size of the SPSA so that reduction of the objective function value oc...
