Abstract. Frequent itemsets and association rules are generally accepted concepts in analyzing item-based databases. The Apriori-framework was developed for analyzing categorical d...
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...

We present a novel POMDP planning algorithm called heuristic search value iteration (HSVI). HSVI is an anytime algorithm that returns a policy and a provable bound on its regret w...
Parameters of statistical distributions that are input to simulations are typically not known with certainty. For existing systems, or variations on existing systems, they are oft...
In this paper we describe a methodology that includes the complementary use of simulated annealing and response surface methodology (RSM). The methodology was developed for analys...
