SAMPLE AVERAGE APPROXIMATION METHOD FOR A CLASS OF STOCHASTIC VARIATIONAL INEQUALITY PROBLEMS

This paper considers a class of stochastic variational inequality problems. As proposed by Jiang and Xu （2008）, by using the so-called regularized gap function, the authors formulate the problems as constrained optimization problems and then propose a sample average approximation method for solving the problems. Under some moderate conditions, the authors investigate the limiting behavior of the optimal values and the optimal solutions of the approximation problems. Finally, some numerical results are reported to show efficiency of the proposed method.
