An Approach to Customer Behavior Modeling using Markov Decision Process

open access: yesMendel, 2017
This paper presents an application of Markov Decision Process method for modeling of selected marketing processes. Based on available realistic data, MDP model is constructed. Customer behavior is represented by a set of states of the model with assigned

Optimal control and optimal sensor activation for Markov decision problems with costly observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper considers partial observation Markov decision processes. Besides the classical control decisions influencing the transition probabilities of the Markov process, we also consider control actions that can activate the sensors to provide more or ...

Markov Decision Processes

open access: yesJahresbericht der Deutschen Mathematiker-Vereinigung, 2010
The theory of Markov Decision Processes is the theory of controlled Markov chains. Its origins can be traced back to R. Bellman and L. Shapley in the 1950's. During the decades of the last century this theory has grown dramatically. It has found applications in various areas like e.g.

Feeding System’s Sensitivity and Reliability Analysis through Markov Decision Process [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences
The present study investigates a Feeding system, which is responsible for continuous coal supply to the boiler of coal fired power plants. As a result of complex working condition in the power plant, feeding system is prone to system failure.

Configurable Markov Decision Processes

open access: yes, 2018
In many real-world problems, there is the possibility to configure, to a limited extent, some environmental parameters to improve the performance of a learning agent. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, Configurable Markov Decision Processes (Conf-MDPs), to model this new type of interaction with the environment.

Decision Making with STPA through Markov Decision Process, a Theoretic Framework for Safe Human-Robot Collaboration

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
During the last decades, collaborative robots capable of operating out of their cages are widely used in industry to assist humans in mundane and harsh manufacturing tasks. Although such robots are inherently safe by design, they are commonly accompanied

Stochastic Tools for Network Intrusion Detection

open access: yes, 2017
With the rapid development of Internet and the sharp increase of network crime, network security has become very important and received a lot of attention. We model security issues as stochastic systems.
