By using this inequality, we obtain the almost sure convergence for NSD sequences, which extends the corresponding results for independent sequences and negatively associated (NA) sequences. In addition, the strong stability for weighted sums of NSD random variables is studied.展开更多

When the smooth function can be represented as a sum of multiple functions, the stochastic proximal gradient method performs well. However, research on its accelerated version remains unclear. This paper proposes a proximal stochastic accelerated gradient (PSAG) method to address problems involving a combination of smooth and non-smooth components, where the smooth part corresponds to the average of multiple block sums. Simultaneously, most of convergence analyses hold in expectation. To this end, under some mind conditions, we present an almost sure convergence of unbiased gradient estimation in the non-smooth setting. Moreover, we establish that the minimum of the squared gradient mapping norm arbitrarily converges to zero with probability one.展开更多

The main results are obtained for (i) random variables {Xmn, m≥ 1, n ≥ 1} being non-identically distributed but satisfy a condition on the summability condition for the moments and (ii) random variables {Xmn, m ≥ 1, n ≥ 1} being stochastically dominated. The result in Case (i) generalizes the main result of M6ricz et al. [J. Theoret. Probab., 21, 660-671 (2008)] from dyadic to arbitrary blocks, whereas the result in Case (ii) extends a result of Gut [Ann. Probab., 6, 469-482 (1978)] to the bockwise M-dependent setting. The sharpness of the results is illustrated by some examples.展开更多
