Penalized sample average approximation methods for stochastic programs in economic and secure dispatch of a power system

In this paper, we develop a stochastic programming model for economic dispatch of a power system with operational reliability and risk control constraints. By defining a severity-index function, we propose to use conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) for measuring the reliability and risk control of the system. The economic dispatch is subsequently formulated as a stochastic program with CVaR constraint. To solve the stochastic optimization model, we propose a penalized sample average approximation (SAA) scheme which incorporates specific features of smoothing technique and level function method. Under some moderate conditions, we demonstrate that with probability approaching to 1 at an exponential rate with the increase of sample size, the optimal solution of the smoothing SAA problem converges to its true counterpart. Numerical tests have been carried out for a standard IEEE-30 DC power system.     

About the conditional value at risk of partial sums

In this note, we give normal approximation results for the conditional value at risk (CVaR) of partial sums of random variables satisfying moment assumptions. These results are based on Berry–Esseen-type bounds for transport costs in the central limit theorem and extensions of Cantelli's inequalities to the CVaR.     

An exact method for constrained maximization of the conditional value-at-risk of a class of stochastic submodular functions

We consider a class of risk-averse submodular maximization problems (RASM) where the objective is the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) of a random nondecreasing submodular function at a given risk level. We propose valid inequalities and an exact general method for solving RASM under the assumption that we have an efficient oracle that computes the CVaR of the random function. We demonstrate the proposed method on a stochastic set covering problem that admits an efficient CVaR oracle for the random coverage function.     

Dynamic conditional value-at-risk model for routing and scheduling of hazardous material transportation networks

This paper illustrates a dynamic model of conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) measure for risk assessment and mitigation of hazardous material transportation in supply chain networks. The well-established market risk measure, CVaR, which is commonly used by financial institutions for portfolio optimizations, is investigated. In contrast to previous works, we consider CVaR as the main objective in the optimization of hazardous material (hazmat) transportation network. In addition to CVaR minimization and route planning of a supply chain network, the time scheduling of hazmat shipments is imposed and considered in the present study. Pertaining to the general dynamic risk model, we analyzed several scenarios involving a variety of hazmats and time schedules with respect to optimal route selection and CVaR minimization. A solution algorithm is then proposed for solving the model, with verifications made using numerical examples and sensitivity analysis.

Time Consistent Dynamic Risk Measures

We introduce the time-consistency concept that is inspired by the so-called “principle of optimality” of dynamic programming and demonstrate – via an example – that the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) need not be time-consistent in a multi-stage case. Then, we give the formulation of the target-percentile risk measure which is time-consistent and hence more suitable in the multi-stage investment context. Finally, we also generalize the value-at-risk and CVaR to multi-stage risk measures based on the theory and structure of the target-percentile risk measure.
