Summary: Let $M : \bold R \rightarrow \bold R$ be observable, with experimental errors, at integer points only; unknown elsewhere. Iterative nonparametric procedures for finding the zero point of $M$ are called procedures of integer stochastic approximation. Three types of such procedures (Derman's, Mukerjee's and the authors') are described and compared. A two-dimensional analogue of the third approach is proposed and investigated; its generalization to higher dimensions is conjectured. (English)
