IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON AUTOMATIC CONTROL, VOL. 42, NO. 12, DECEMBER 1997 1663 The Policy Iteration Algorithm for Average Reward

open access: yes, 2007
The average cost optimal control problem is addressed for Markov decision processes with unbounded cost. It is found that the policy iteration algorithm generates a sequence of policies which are (a strong stability condition), where c is the cost ...

Nonlinear Markov games on a finite state space (mean-field and binary interactions) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Managing large complex stochastic systems, including competitive interests, when one or several players can control the behavior of a large number of particles (agents, mechanisms, vehicles, subsidiaries, species, police units, etc), say Nk for a player ...

A GOODNESS OF FIT TEST FOR ERGODIC MARKOV PROCESSES [PDF]

open access: yes
We introduce a goodness of fit test for ergodic Markov processes. Our test compares the data against the set of stationary densities implied by the class of models specified in the null hypothesis, and rejects if no model in the class yields a stationary

Detection of Text Lines of Handwritten Arabic Manuscripts using Markov Decision Processes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence, 2016
In a character recognition systems, the segmentation phase is critical since the accuracy of the recognition depend strongly on it. In this paper we present an approach based on Markov Decision Processes to extract text lines from binary images of Arabic

Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes in Shared Autonomy Applications: A Survey

open access: yesIEEE Access
Shared autonomy consists of a collaborative effort between a human user and a robotic system having a shared goal, in which the human-controlled robot adapts its behaviour to provide assistive actions.

Wide sense one-dependent processes with embedded Harris chains and their applications in inventory management [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we consider stochastic processes with an embedded Harris chain. The embedded Harris chain describes the dependence structure of the stochastic process.

Random-horizon Markov decision processes with fuzzy rewards on Borel spaces

open access: yesOpen Mathematics
We study a class of Markov decision processes on Borel state spaces motivated by situations where both the horizon and the notion of performance are uncertain.

Nonuniqueness versus Uniqueness of Optimal Policies in Convex Discounted Markov Decision Processes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
From the classical point of view, it is important to determine if in a Markov decision process (MDP), besides their existence, the uniqueness of the optimal policies is guaranteed.
