Finite State Approximations for Countable State Infinite Horizon Discounted Markov Decision Processes [PDF]
It is proved that the optimal policy of a Markov decision process where the state space is truncated, will approximate the policy in case of no truncation.

Deterministic Discounted Markov Decision Processes with Fuzzy Rewards/Costs
The article concerns a study of infinite-horizon deterministic Markov decision processes (MDPs) for which the fuzzy environment will be presented through considering these MDPs with both fuzzy rewards and fuzzy costs.

A Faster-Than Relation for Semi-Markov Decision Processes [PDF]
When modeling concurrent or cyber-physical systems, non-functional requirements such as time are important to consider. In order to improve the timing aspects of a model, it is necessary to have some notion of what it means for a process to be faster ...

Markov Decision Processes with Multiple Long-run Average Objectives [PDF]
We study Markov decision processes (MDPs) with multiple limit-average (or mean-payoff) functions. We consider two different objectives, namely, expectation and satisfaction objectives.

An ϵ-Greedy Multiarmed Bandit Approach to Markov Decision Processes
We present REGA, a new adaptive-sampling-based algorithm for the control of finite-horizon Markov decision processes (MDPs) with very large state spaces and small action spaces. We apply a variant of the ϵ-greedy multiarmed bandit algorithm to each stage

UAV Formation Shape Control via Decentralized Markov Decision Processes
In this paper, we present a decentralized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm formation control approach based on a decision theoretic approach. Specifically, we pose the UAV swarm motion control problem as a decentralized Markov decision process (Dec ...

Quantile Markov Decision Process
The goal of a traditional Markov decision process (MDP) is to maximize expected cumulative reward over a defined horizon (possibly infinite). In many applications, however, a decision maker may be interested in optimizing a specific quantile of the cumulative reward instead of its expectation.

Logistic Markov Decision Processes [PDF]
User modeling in advertising and recommendation has typically focused on myopic predictors of user responses. In this work, we consider the long-term decision problem associated with user interaction. We propose a concise specification of long-term interaction dynamics by combining factored dynamic Bayesian networks with logistic predictors of user ...
