Abstract

A framework for sequentially solving stochastic optimization problems with stochastic gradient descent is introduced. Two tracking criteria are considered, one based on being accurate with respect to the mean trajectory and the other based on being accurate in high probability (IHP). An off-line optimization problem is solved to find the constant step size and number of iterations to achieve the desired tracking accuracy. Simulations are used to confirm that this approach provides the desired tracking accuracy.
