Amygdala–prefrontal connectivity modulates loss aversion bias in anxious individuals

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
Anxious individuals tend to make pessimistic judgments in decision making under uncertainty. While this phenomenon is commonly attributed to risk aversion, loss aversion is a critical but often overlooked factor. In this study, we simultaneously examined

Risk-Averse Planning Under Uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes2020 American Control Conference (ACC), 2020
We consider the problem of designing policies for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) with dynamic coherent risk objectives. Synthesizing risk-averse optimal policies for POMDPs requires infinite memory and thus undecidable. To overcome this difficulty, we propose a method based on bounded policy iteration for designing stochastic ...
