Computer science description: We introduce a new stochastic gradient algorithm, SAAGA, and investigate its employment for solving Stochastic MPC problems and multi-stage stochastic optimization programs in general. The method is particularly attractive for scenario-based formulations that involve a large number of scenarios, for which “batch” formulations may become inefficient due to high computational costs. Benefits of the method include cheap computations per iteration and fast convergence due to the sparsity of the proposed problem decomposition. publisher: IEEE date: 2016-06 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en rights: cc_by_nc identifier: http://eprints.imtlucca.it/3645/1/ecc16-sg-mpc.pdf identifier: Themelis, A. and Villa, S. and Patrinos, Panagiotis and Bemporad, Alberto Stochastic gradient methods for stochastic model predictive control.
