T1 Solution of Nonconvex Nonsmooth Stochastic Optimization Problems JF Cybernetics and Systems Analysis YR 2003 FD 2003 VO 39 IS 5 SP 701 OP 715 K1 Nonconvex optimization problems; Nonsmooth functions; Stochastic programming; Stochastic quasigradient; Uncertainty AB Different classes of nonconvex nonsmooth stochastic optimization problems are analyzed, their generalized differentiability properties and necessary optimality conditions are studied, and a technique for calculating stochastic gradients is developed. For each class of the problems, corresponding solution methods are proposed, in particular, generalizations of the stochastic quasigradient method.
