In this paper, we consider two fundamental inventory models, the single-period newsvendor
problem and its multiperiod extension, but under the assumption that the explicit demand …

We study the classical multiperiod capacitated stochastic inventory control problems in a
data-driven setting. Instead of assuming full knowledge of the demand distributions, we …

We consider two classical stochastic inventory control models, the periodic-review stochastic
inventory control problem and the stochastic lot-sizing problem. The goal is to coordinate a …

We develop the first algorithmic approach to compute provably good ordering policies for a
multiperiod, capacitated, stochastic inventory system facing stochastic nonstationary and …

We revisit the classical dynamic inventory management problem of Scarf [Scarf H (1959b)
The optimality of (s, S) policies in the dynamic inventory problem. Arrow KJ, Karlin S, Suppes …

Using the well-known product-limit form of the Kaplan-Meier estimator from statistics, we
propose a new class of nonparametric adaptive data-driven policies for stochastic inventory …

In this paper, we consider numerous inventory control problems for which the base-stock
policies are known to be optimal, and we propose stochastic approximation methods to …

We consider the problem of optimizing inventories for problems where the demand
distribution is unknown, and where it does not necessarily follow a standard form such as …

Fixed costs of ordering items or setting up a production process arise in many real‐life
scenarios. In their presence, the most widely used ordering policy in the stochastic inventory …

The single-item stochastic inventory control problem is to find an inventory replenishment
policy in the presence of independent discrete stochastic demands under periodic review …
