Timed Comparisons of Semi-Markov Processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Semi-Markov processes are Markovian processes in which the firing time of the transitions is modelled by probabilistic distributions over positive reals interpreted as the probability of firing a transition at a certain moment in time.

Multi-state models for evaluating conversion options in life insurance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we propose a multi-state model for the evaluation of the conversion option contract. The multi-state model is based on age-indexed semi-Markov chains that are able to reproduce many important aspects that influence the valuation of the ...

A safe reinforcement learning approach for autonomous navigation of mobile robots in dynamic environments

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract When deploying mobile robots in real‐world scenarios, such as airports, train stations, hospitals, and schools, collisions with pedestrians are intolerable and catastrophic. Motion safety becomes one of the most fundamental requirements for mobile robots.

Optimised Internet of Thing framework based hybrid meta‐heuristic algorithms for E‐healthcare monitoring

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Everything can be connected in the Internet of Things (IoTs) technology that enables efficient communication between connected objects. IoTs industry‐based meta‐heuristic and mining algorithms, which are considered an important field of Artificial Intelligence will be used to construct a healthcare application in this study for lowering costs,

Semi-Markov Graph Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, we outline a model of graph (or network) dynamics based on two ingredients. The first ingredient is a Markov chain on the space of possible graphs. The second ingredient is a semi-Markov counting process of renewal type. The model consists

Optimal Control of Partially Observable Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper we consider a control problem for a Partially Observable Piecewise Deterministic Markov Process of the following type: After the jump of the process the controller receives a noisy signal about the state and the aim is to control the ...

Quality Performance Criterion Model for Distributed Automated Control Systems Based on Markov Processes for Smart Grid

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This paper addresses the problem of decision-making support for the modernization of distributed automated control systems (ACS) in power engineering by proposing an integral quality criterion that combines similarity-driven Markov process modeling with ...

Mean-Payoff Optimization in Continuous-Time Markov Chains with Parametric Alarms

open access: yes, 2017
Continuous-time Markov chains with alarms (ACTMCs) allow for alarm events that can be non-exponentially distributed. Within parametric ACTMCs, the parameters of alarm-event distributions are not given explicitly and can be subject of parameter synthesis.
