On improving the performance of simulation-based algorithms for average reward processes with application to network pricing
We address performance issues associated with simulationbased algorithms for optimizing Markov reward processes. Specifically, we are concerned with algorithms that exploit the re...

Complexity of Probabilistic Planning under Average Rewards
A general and expressive model of sequential decision making under uncertainty is provided by the Markov decision processes (MDPs) framework. Complex applications with very large ...
