Numerical solutions of the mass transfer problem

Serge Dubuc, Issa Kagabo (2006)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Let μ and ν be two probability measures on the real line and let c be a lower semicontinuous function on the plane. The mass transfer problem consists in determining a measure ξ whose marginals coincide with μ and ν, and whose total cost ∫∫ c(x,y)dξ(x,y) is minimum. In this paper we present three algorithms to solve numerically this Monge-Kantorovitch problem when the commodity being shipped is one-dimensional and not necessarily confined to a bounded interval. We illustrate these numerical...

Numerical study of discretizations of multistage stochastic programs

Petri Hilli, Teemu Pennanen (2008)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a numerical study of a deterministic discretization procedure for multistage stochastic programs where the underlying stochastic process has a continuous probability distribution. The discretization procedure is based on quasi-Monte Carlo techniques originally developed for numerical multivariate integration. The solutions of the discretized problems are evaluated by statistical bounds obtained from random sample average approximations and out-of-sample simulations. In the numerical...
