We generalise the optimisation technique of dynamic programming for discretetime systems with an uncertain gain function. We assume that uncertainty about the gain function is des...

Given a random set coming from the imprecise observation of a random variable, we study how to model the information about the distribution of this random variable. Specifically,...
