1. Fixed Point Iterations for Finite Sum Monotone Inclusions
Abstract : This thesis studies two families of methods for finding zeros of finite sums of monotone operators, the first being variance-reduced stochastic gradient (VRSG) methods. This is a large family of algorithms that use random sampling to improve the convergence rate compared to more traditional approaches. READ MORE

2. Digital lines, Sturmian words, and continued fractions
Abstract : In this thesis we present and solve selected problems arising from digital geometry and combinatorics on words. We consider digital straight lines and, equivalently, upper mechanical words with positive irrational slopes a... READ MORE

3. Stochastic Modeling and Simulation of the TCP protocol
Abstract : The success of the current Internet relies to a large extent on a cooperation between the users and the network. The network signals its current state to the users by marking or dropping packets. The users then strive to maximize the sending rate without causing network congestion. READ MORE

4. Urban Travel Time Estimation from Sparse GPS Data : An Efficient and Scalable Approach
Abstract : The use of GPS probes in traffic management is growing rapidly as the required data collection infrastructure is increasingly in place, with significant number of mobile sensors moving around covering expansive areas of the road network. Many travelers carry with them at least one device with a built-in GPS receiver. READ MORE

5. Efficient and Flexible First-Order Optimization Algorithms
Abstract : Optimization problems occur in many areas in science and engineering. When the optimization problem at hand is of large-scale, the computational cost of the optimization algorithm is a main concern. READ MORE
