Optimal Intervention in Semi-Markov-Based Asynchronous Probabilistic Boolean Networks

open access: yesComplexity, 2018
Synchronous probabilistic Boolean networks (PBNs) and generalized asynchronous PBNs have received significant attention over the past decade as a tool for modeling complex genetic regulatory networks.

Efficient qualitative analysis of classes of recursive markov decision processes and simple stochastic games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
. Recursive Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) and Recursive Simple Stochastic Games (RSSGs) are natural models for recursive systems involving both probabilistic and non-probabilistic actions.

Mean-variance optimality for semi-Markov decision processes under first passage criteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
summary:This paper deals with a first passage mean-variance problem for semi-Markov decision processes in Borel spaces. The goal is to minimize the variance of a total discounted reward up to the system's first entry to some target set, where the ...

Asymptotic Expansions for Moments of Hitting Times for Nonlinearly Perturbed Semi-Markov Processes

open access: yes, 2017
In Chapter 3, we introduce a model of perturbed semi-Markov processes, formulate basic perturbation conditions, describe a one-step time-space screening procedure of phase space reduction for perturbed semi-Markov processes, introduce hitting times, and ...

Undiscounted Semi-Markov Decision Processes with Countably Infinite Action Spaces

open access: yesAlgorithms
In this article, we study semi-Markov decision processes (SMDPs) under the limiting ratio average (undiscounted) pay-off criterion, where the state space is finite and the action space of the decision maker is possibly countably infinite.

Nonlinearly Perturbed Birth-Death-Type Semi-Markov Processes

open access: yes, 2017
In Chapter 5, we present asymptotic expansions for stationary and conditional quasi-stationary distributions of nonlinearly perturbed birth-death-type semi-Markov processes, which play an important role in many applications.

An Adaptive Scheduling Algorithm Integrating Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning and Semi-Markov Decision Processes

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Coordinating multiple unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems under strict energy and temporal constraints remains a complex scheduling problem. Existing reinforcement learning methods typically rely on fixed-time-step modeling, which struggles to ...

First passage risk probability optimality for continuous time Markov decision processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
summary:In this paper, we study continuous time Markov decision processes (CTMDPs) with a denumerable state space, a Borel action space, unbounded transition rates and nonnegative reward function.

Bridging the Synchrony Gap: A Deterministic GSMDP Approach for Integrating Deep Reinforcement Learning with Commercial Discrete Event Simulators

open access: yesProceedings of the Conference on Production Systems and Logistics
Although Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) offers adaptive control for manufacturing processes, training agents within high-fidelity commercial Discrete Event Simulation (DES) tools is hindered by the temporal mismatch between the continuous-time event ...
