A Concentration Bound for Stochastic Approximation via Alekseev's Formula
Gugan Thoppe ; Vivek S. Borkar ;
Date 26 Jun 2015
AbstractIn this paper, we obtain a lower bound on the probability that the stochastic approximation iterates remain in the $epsilon-$neighborhood of a desired solution from some time $n_0 + au$ onwards given that the $n_0-$th iterate was in some bigger neighbourhood of this solution. For this, we use the Alekseev’s analog of the variation of constants formula for nonlinear systems and a concentration inequality for martingales, which we prove separately. Our bound holds under significantly weaker hypotheses as compared to available results in similar vein.
