  • Abstract
    The simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) method developed by Spall (1992) is applied and analyzed for function minimization under quantization error. It is proved that under certain conditions the estimator sequence converges with rate O(n-β/2 ) for some β>0, where the rate is measured by the Lq -norm of the estimation error for any 1⩽q<∞. The viability of SPSA for the present problem is also demonstrated by simulation results
