Stochastic Optimisation of Controlled Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes
We introduce an on-line algorithm for finding local maxima of the average reward in a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) controlled by a parameterized policy. Optimization is over the parameters of the policy.

ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

On the importance of including both sexes in animal studies – insights from home‐cage monitoring
ABSTRACT A review of behavioural studies using home‐cage monitoring (HCM) systems revealed that over 61% of studies used only male subjects, with only 24% including both sexes, despite evidence of substantial behavioural differences between male and female animals. This bias could influence the outcomes of biomedical research.

Finding the Value of Information About a State Variable in a Markov Decision Process [PDF]
In this paper we present a mixed–integer programming formulation that computes the optimal solution for a certain class of Markov decision processes with finite state and action spaces, where a state is comprised of multiple state variables, and one of ...

ABSTRACT The concept of predictive maintenance in advanced manufacturing systems is crucial from the point of view of resource efficiency in the era of high competitiveness forced by energy transformation in the digital economy. Against the backdrop of sustainability and the opportunities a data cooperative offers, the combination of predictive ...

ABSTRACT This article contributes to sustainability research by investigating the complex, geopolitically induced challenges faced by industrial supply chains under international sanctions. Using Iran's steel industry as a case, it examines sustainability barriers through the lens of stakeholder theory. A mixed methods approach was employed.
