A constrained agent is limited in the actions that it can take at any given time, and a challenging problem is to design policies for such agents to do the best they can despite t...
— We define the concept of approximate domain optimizer for deterministic and expected value optimization criteria. Roughly speaking, a candidate optimizer is an approximate dom...
