Generalized regret based decision making

Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 2017
Abstract We describe the basic regret decision-making model for decision problems in which the payoff for a given alternative is uncertain and depends on the value of a variable called the state of nature. An important attribute of this model is the maximum payoff for the occurrence of a given state of nature.
