Active object recognition by view integration and reinforcement learning
A mobile agent with the task to classify its sensor pattern has to cope with ambiguous information. Active recognition of three-dimensional objects involves the observer in a sear...

Noisy K Best-Paths for Approximate Dynamic Programming with Application to Portfolio Optimization
Abstract— We describe a general method to transform a non-Markovian sequential decision problem into a supervised learning problem using a K-bestpaths algorithm. We consider an a...

Evaluation of Algorithms for Sequential Decision in Biosonar Target Classification
A sequential decision problem, based on the task of identifying the species of trees given acoustic echo data collected from them, is considered with well-known stochastic classifi...

Recommendation as a Stochastic Sequential Decision Problem
Recommender systems — systems that suggest to users in e-commerce sites items that might interest them — adopt a static view of the recommendation process and treat it as a pr...

Adapting to a Market Shock: Optimal Sequential Market-Making
We study the profit-maximization problem of a monopolistic market-maker who sets two-sided prices in an asset market. The sequential decision problem is hard to solve because the ...

Piecewise-stationary bandit problems with side observations
We consider a sequential decision problem where the rewards are generated by a piecewise-stationary distribution. However, the different reward distributions are unknown and may c...
