For many real-life Bayesian networks, common knowledge dictates that the output established for the main variable of interest increases with higher values for the observable varia...

We present a major improvement to the incremental pruning algorithm for solving partially observable Markov decision processes. Our technique targets the cross-sum step of the dyn...

We describe an approach for exploiting structure in Markov Decision Processes with continuous state variables. At each step of the dynamic programming, the state space is dynamica...
