Efficient Planning in Large POMDPs through Policy Graph Based Factorized Approximations
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are widely used for planning under uncertainty. In many applications, the huge size of the POMDP state space makes straightf...

A Closer Look at MOMDPs
Abstract--The difficulties encountered in sequential decisionmaking problems under uncertainty are often linked to the large size of the state space. Exploiting the structure of th...

Joint Training and Decoding Using Virtual Nodes for Cascaded Segmentation and Tagging Tasks
Many sequence labeling tasks in NLP require solving a cascade of segmentation and tagging subtasks, such as Chinese POS tagging, named entity recognition, and so on. Traditional p...

Making the Right Cut in Model Checking Data-Intensive Timed Systems
Abstract. The success of industrial-scale model checkers such as Uppaal [3] or NuSMV [12] relies on the efficiency of their respective symbolic state space representations. While d...

Strong Optimality for a Bang-Bang Trajectory
In this paper we give sufficient conditions for a bang-bang regular extremal to be a strong local optimum for a control problem in the Mayer form; strong means that we consider the...

A Sparse Sampling Algorithm for Near-Optimal Planning in Large Markov Decision Processes
An issue that is critical for the application of Markov decision processes MDPs to realistic problems is how the complexity of planning scales with the size of the MDP. In stochas...
