Online Stochastic Matching: A Polytope Perspective
C{é}line Comte, Fabien Mathieu, Sushil Mahavir Varma +1
Stochastic dynamic matching problems have recently gained attention in the stochastic-modeling community due to their diverse applications, such as supply-chain management and kidn…
A Heavy Traffic Theory of Matching Queues
Sushil Mahavir Varma, Siva Theja Maguluri
Motivated by emerging applications in online matching platforms and marketplaces, we study a matching queue. Customers and servers that arrive in a matching queue depart as soon as…
Transportation Polytope and its Applications in Parallel Server Systems
Sushil Mahavir Varma, Siva Theja Maguluri
A parallel server system is a stochastic processing network with applications in manufacturing, supply chain, ride-hailing, call centers, etc. Heterogeneous customers arrive in the…
On the Linear convergence of Natural Policy Gradient Algorithm
Sajad Khodadadian, Prakirt Raj Jhunjhunwala, Sushil Mahavir Varma +1
Markov Decision Processes are classically solved using Value Iteration and Policy Iteration algorithms. Recent interest in Reinforcement Learning has motivated the study of methods…
