This paper discusses decision making in the practically important situation where only partial prior information on the stochastic behavior of the states of nature expressed by im...
— The field of robotics is on a growth curve, with most of the growth expected in the areas of personal and service robots. As robots become more prevalent in chaotic home and in...
Markov decision processes (MDPs) and contingency planning (CP) are two widely used approaches to planning under uncertainty. MDPs are attractive because the model is extremely gen...
Penetration Testing is a methodology for assessing network security, by generating and executing possible hacking attacks. Doing so automatically allows for regular and systematic...
The paper presents an efficient solution to decision problems where direct partial information on the distribution of the states of nature is available, either by observations of ...
