AN EMPERICAL STUDY OF THREE STOCHASTIC APPROXIMATION TECHNIQUES APPLICABLE TO SENSITIVITY TESTING

Abstract

The rates of convergence of three stochastic approximation estimators are studied emperically using a Monte Carlo sampling procedure. The results are presented in tabular form and various conclusions are made as to the utility of each estimator in the light of these results.
